About this movie

A Swedish family travels to the French Alps to enjoy a few days of skiing. The sun is shining and the slopes are spectacular but, during a lunch at a mountainside restaurant, an avalanche turns everything upside down.

Ratings and reviews

Strange film. Pretty well acted but just odd. Ultimately it's a story about family life and people getting bored with the mundane. But the wrapper is just a bit dull. I'm fine with European subtitled films, but this was just trying to be a bit too clever for it's own good. Even with an opportunity to end it in a dark manner, it wasn't taken. Odd. Good job it was a quid!

Typical swedish fair, slowly shows the unravelling of the father's actions...

Haven't seen it but it look likes ,judging from the trail or my cup of tea
