Orkney |
An ageing literature professor takes his unfathomable young bride (and former student) to the islands of her birth on their honeymoon. In their isolation, he tries to unravel who she is and how she is part of this bleak and mythical land and seascape. Vividly painted in a palette of blues and greys, the islands play almost as important a role as the characters, and ultimately remain as much of a mystery.
