He cometh


Iceman (2017)

Directed by Felix Randau this film stars Jurgen Vogel, Susanne Wuest, Andre Hennicke and Sabin Tambrea. A neolithic man returns home to find his family killed and their village burnt to the ground.

Presented without subtitles it is an interesting choice to keep the viewer at arms length to reflect the fact we can never really know the full story of a person from so long ago. The plot is a simple revenge piece and is pretty easy to follow despite not knowing what people are saying. There are some great landscape shots to look at as a backdrop for the film.

4/5
