27th Black Nights Film Festival
A farmer that lives a quiet life in the countryside is forced by the state to sell his home. He leaves everything behind, relocates to the capital, and soon meets a 10-year-old paper boy. Their friendship proves to be transformative for them both.
Working from a screenplay by filmmaker Rúnar Rúnarsson – whose features “Volcano” (2011) and “Sparrow” (2015) screened at PÖFF – Pálmadóttir imbues her film with the same warmth, nuance, and sensitivity that distinguished her short films. In a manner that feels endearingly modest yet quietly profound, “Solitude” celebrates the comfort and solace that an unexpected connection can provide, especially for two lonely misfits who could do with a little (or a lot) more kindness in their lives. – TIFF.net
