Activity description:
"Time and Water" is a striking documentary directed by Sara Dosa that explores the impact of climate change through the lens of Icelandic writer Andri Snær Magnason, who is tasked with composing a eulogy for Okjökull, the first glacier lost to climate change. The film intertwines Magnason's personal history and family memories with the vanishing landscapes of his country's ice. It draws from home movies, photographs, songs, and folklore to create an immersive portrait of loss and continuity, moving between intimate recollections and the monumental sweep of glaciers. The documentary is a visually striking meditation on vulnerability, charting the fragility of the natural world and the urgent need to bear witness before vital elements disappear.
Editorial recommendations:
Jessie Fairbanks describes the film as a "visually striking meditation on vulnerability, charting the fragility of the natural world and the urgent need to bear witness before vital elements of it disappear."
Language:
Icelandic, English
Suitability:
Director Sara Dosa and subject Andri Snær Magnason are expected to attend for a post-screening Q&A at both showtimes.
