101 Reykjavik

2000, Movie, 1h 28min

Thirty-year-old Hlynur still lives with his mother and spends his days drinking, watching porn and surfing the net while living off unemployment checks. A girl is interested in him, but he stands back from commitment. His mother's Spanish flamenco teacher, Lola, moves in with them for Christmas. On New Year's Eve, while his mother is away, Hlynur finds out Lola is a lesbian, but also ends up having sex with her. He soon finds out he and his mother are sharing more than a house. Eventually he must find out where he fits into the puzzle, and how to live life less selfishly.

Although it combines Almodovarian touches of extravagance with a peculiar brand of Icelandic humour, there are also distinctive echoes of Fargo and Gazon Maudit in the way Kormakur depicts the snow-sedated community.
