Event details

Directed by Lucile Hadžihalilović
Starring Marion Cotillard, Clara Pacini, August Diehl

Colder than ice, her kiss pierces the heart…

The 1970s. Runaway Jeanne (Clara Pacini) falls under the spell of Cristina (Academy Award winner Marion Cotillard), enigmatic star of The Snow Queen, a film of the Hans Christian Andersen story being shot in the studio where Jeanne has taken refuge. A mutual but potentially dangerous fascination begins to grow between the actress and the girl.

A richly textured and deeply moving tale of longing and solitude, this dark and mesmerising modern fairy tale is a highly original and alternative festive release in the run-up to Christmas.

The fourth feature by Lucile Hadžihalilović, The Ice Tower premiered in competition at this year’s Berlin Film Festival where it won the Silver Bear for Outstanding Artistic Contribution.
