The Summer Book.

McDowell, Charlie, (film director.). Danielsen Lie, Anders, (actor.). Matthews, Emily, (actor.). Close, Glenn, (actor.). Sigurdsson, Ingvar, (actor.). Music Box Films (Firm), (Distributor). Kanopy (Firm), (Distributor).

Summary:

Nine-year-old Sophia (Emily Matthews) spends the summers at her family’s seasonal home on a tranquil isle in the Gulf of Finland, but this will be the first summer without her mother. Her father (Anders Danielsen Lie) remains numbed by grief, while her grandmother (Glenn Close) guides her on a giddy, winding path towards young adulthood. With a sense of infinite possibility and a tender regard for the wonders of the natural world, Sophia and her grandmother explore the terrain, celebrate midsommar, and test the limits of faith in the face of life’s many storms. Adapted from Tove Jansson’s beloved novel, THE SUMMER BOOK is a delicate account of growing up and growing old, beautifully filmed on 16mm in majestic natural light.
