One is eight years old, one’s 14. One clings to mom without knowing what else to do, the other resents her. They’d be stereotypes if they actually had some surroundings to ascribe their views, but as it stands, they’re something a little more than that. Meet Vincent (Troy Lundkvist) and Elina (Tintin Poggats Sarri), two siblings who have been living with their dad (Sverrir Gudnason) for the past few months. They haven’t seen their mom, Alice (Ane Dahl Torp), since she decided to go on her own for a while, but when she gets a call from him one night, she springs into caring.
That isn’t necessarily to say that she didn’t care before; it’s more that she didn’t realize she had to care more. Likewise, to get a call from a child declaring their disdain for their living situation isn’t so much a cry for help.
