Journey to Greenland
Rendez-Vous with French Cinema 2017
March 1 - 12, 2017
Two thirty-something Parisians embark on an extended sojourn in a remote, snowbound stretch of Greenland in this perceptive, warm-spirited study of cross-cultural misunderstanding and connection. A Netflix release.
Scruffy, thirtysomething best friends both named Thomas (Thomas Blanchard and Thomas Scimeca) leave behind their struggling acting careers in Paris for an extended sojourn in a remote, snowbound stretch of Greenland. One is there to reconnect with his off-the-grid father, the other for adventure. What ensues is a perceptive, warm-spirited study of cross-cultural misunderstanding and connection, as the two men learn to survive in a place without alcohol, indoor plumbing, or a reliable Internet connection. Director Sébastien Betbeder balances wry, unforced comedy with casual insight into human relationships: between friends, family members, and the strangers who touch your life. A Netflix release.
