101 Reykjavik (2000)
Country: ICE/DK/NOR/FR/GER
Technical: col 88m
Director: Baltasar Kormákur
Cast: Victoria Abril, Hilmir Snær Gudnason, Hanna María Karlsdóttir
Synopsis:
An unemployed thirty year-old spends his days at home and his nights cruising bars, but his nihilism is put to the test when his girlfriend tells him she is pregnant and he falls for his Mum's lesbian lover.
Review:
Fresh in location but soulless and otherwise unremarkable comedy drama of transgression. One or two moments smack of Lukas Moodysson but the pace is too slow and the central character's trajectory too familiar to excite.
