Inspired by Tove Jansson’s cherished novel, this film beautifully portrays the evolving bond between Sophia, a perceptive nine-year-old on the cusp of adolescence, and her wise grandmother. The family inhabits the tranquil simplicity of a summer cottage on a pristine islet in the Gulf of Finland. Glenn Close stars as the matronly grandmother who poses fundamental questions about the essence of life and death and the nature of divinity. As the summer comes to an end, we witness a family strengthened by love and connection.
