Review: 'Dashing in December' Exceeds Admittedly Low Expectations
Dashing in December follows the tried and true outline of a traditional holiday romance, with a less traditional middle-aged gay couple as the film's romantic focus.
L'Autre Voyage au Centre de la Terre
Buoyed by the imagination of Jules Verne, who once contributed to the international renown of the land of the northern lights, Christine Oberdorff adds the black-and-white imagery of award-winning Icelandic photographer Ragnar Axelsson. This new opus navigates between what characterizes the island of fire and ice: the imaginary and the real, from the bluish reflections of the caves at the top of Snaefellsjoküll that made Jules Verne fantasize, to the performance of geothermal energy and carbon storage, thanks to which Iceland intends to find remedies for global warming, of which it is one of the Arctic "thermostats".

As much as there is to appreciate about narratives revolving around the obstacles that may come from being non-heteronormative, it’s nice to get immersed in a world where no one bats an eye at all to any sort of differing identity.
