THE JUNIPER TREE

Presented by Cleveland Institute of Art at The Cleveland Institute of Art Cinematheque

Singer and fashion icon Björk made her big screen debut in this visually stunning medieval fantasy loosely based on a Brothers Grimm fairy tale and shot in scenic Iceland. (It evokes both Carl Dreyer’s Day of Wrath and Ingmar Bergman’s The Virgin Spring.) She plays one of two sisters who flee after their mother is burned for witchcraft. They find refuge with a widower and his son until sorcery again threatens their safety. “Dark and delightful and ripe for rediscovery.” –IndieWire. In English. DCP. 78 min.
