Catching up on film

I've watched quite a few films recently that were really great. I enjoyed Johnny Depp in Sweeny Todd, but yesterday I saw a film called Far North that was just jaw dropping. Set amongst the Tundra, the glaciers and emptiness adds to the power story.
The film was beautifully shot by Roman Osin and directed by Asif Kapadia. The film is truly a work of art. There is very little dialogue, but the film flows well and the back story can be figured out. The film has some predictability, but it does have a surprise ending. If you love film this film is a must see. The film stars Michelle Yeoh, Sean Bean and Michelle Krusiec. It's a film about survival, passion and revenge.
