Grímur Hákonarson
Grímur Hákonarson’s The County follows an Icelandic widowed farmer as she fights beauracratic corruption and injustice.
Iceland is slowly becoming one of the planet’s leading cinematic nations, with many directors realising that the country’s desolate landscape is the perfect fit for sci-fi. Christopher Nolan and Ridley Scott have both shot there recently, whereas the upcoming Rogue One: A Star Wars Story was filming there last autumn.
