Finnkino Prize: Selection Officielle 2009 / Director: Caroline Link
A Year Ago in Winter
A touching tale of a family coping with a horrible tragedy in an entirely novel way. (…) A moving fi lm about coping with death and loss, ”A Year Ago in Winter” by Caroline Link, 2003 foreign-langauge Oscar winner for ”Nowhere in Africa”, is a wonderful arthouse fare with immense crossover potential. Painting and poetry, music and melancholy breathe out of the frames in a smoothly crafted work that describes and dissects the angst of a Bavarian family.
