Time and Water

Renowned Icelandic poet and author Andri Snær Magnason is chasing something elusive. As the glacial ice of his homeland melts, he constructs a cinematic time capsule to hold onto this moment and send it to the future, before everything he loves slips away. Using his own collected archives, his grandparents' photographs, and films, as well as traditional songs and folktales, Andri interlaces his family’s story with that of the land around him. From Academy Award®-nominated director Sara Dosa, TIME AND WATER is a universal reflection on the power of home and what it means to be alive amid profound epochal change.

"Yes, it’s easy to mourn what we’re losing, but what she captures should inspire us to realize that the Earth is still worth fighting for. It’s not too late to save it."

"Time and Water is a meditative elegy for a disappearing land that has forged the culture of Iceland for thousands of years."
