The picture will be showcased in the Crystal Globe competition of the A-list gathering (see the news). The feature was presented during the Finnish Film Affair and subsequently took home the Top Prize for Best Upcoming Nordic Project.
Before embarking on the making of her first feature, Ingolfsdottir helmed several shorts, including What We Fear (2022) and Neglect (2010).
Loveable revolves around 40-year-old Maria, a mother of four, who must come to terms with herself when her husband says that he wants a divorce. The creative team bills it as “an interpersonal film about a break-up, but also about a woman’s opportunity for self-knowledge and growth, and having to deal with unconscious and dysfunctional patterns in herself”.
The main cast includes Helga Guren (22 July), Oddgeir Thune (Blind Spot [+lee también:
