Jar City

I'm kinda making it my mission that the GF and I should watch way more world cinema. Top this extent we watched 'Jar City" on Sunday. A superb Icelandic murder mystery. The story although formulaic was beautifully rendered by the natural landscapes that Iceland has to offer. I really want to go; I'm utterly seduced by the bleak desolation, the grey skies, the crashing waves and the sense of infinite that these landscapes smell of. They've been here long before us and they'll still be here long after we've destroyed ourselves......
