Winter Brothers

Streaming video - 2017

An odyssey set in a rural chalk-mining community during a cold winter. WINTER BROTHERS follows two brothers working in this harsh environment focusing on the younger brother Emil, who distills moonshine made from stolen chemicals from the factory. Emil is an outsider, an oddball, who made a conscious choice for loneliness and is only accepted by the mining community due to his older brother Johan. Emil longs for passion, for being wanted and loved. When a fellow worker becomes sick, the moonshine and Emil are prime suspects. Gradually a violent feud erupts between him and the tightly-knit mining community. Winner of four awards including Best Actor at the **Locarno International Film Festival.** Official Selection at the **Toronto Internati...onal Film Festival.** *"A confidently handled, promisingly edgy feature debut...has already confirmed Palmason and company as names to watch." - Neil Young, **The Hollywood Reporter***
