The Reykjavík International Film Festival began this week and is jam-packed with a cavalcade of fantastic films, events and celeb appearances from the likes of James Marsh and Béla Tarr, as well as talks by Jim Jarmusch, Kevin Smith, David Suzuki and a slew of others. The jam-packed schedule of great cinema from around the world will keep you busy—and frustrated!—featuring movies like ‘Oslo 31. August’ by Joachim Trier, ‘Habibi’ by Susan Youssef, ‘Volcano’ by Rúnar Rúnarsson, special features and a huge selection of documentaries. Not to mention a stellar collection of local short movies. Check out the Icelandic film scene in brief through pictures like ‘Revolution Reykjavík’, ‘Kría, vegamynd’, ‘Við skiljum ei meir’ and so many more (all subtitled, of course.)
