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 <i>The Snow Queen</i>, 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 will make a highly original and alternative festive release in the run-up to Christmas. The fourth feature by Lucile Hadžihalilović, <i>The Ice Tower</i> premiered in competition at this year’s Berlin Film Festival where it won the Silver Bear for Outstanding Artistic Contribution.DramaPT1H58M152025-11-21
