Heartstone
As the summer sun shines, romance blossoms across a remote coastal village in Iceland. Thor and Kristján are two teenagers: Kristján towering over his smaller but self-assured friend. Caught off-guard by a burgeoning sexual awakening, Thor decides to try and set himself and Kristján up with two girls, unaware that his friend is secretly in love with him.
Heartstone navigates familiar small-town tensions and coming-of-age drama with a tenderness that is both poignant and affecting.
