Can a divorce be gentle? And, as you’re going through it, can love survive? Once, visual artist Anna and fisherman Magnus were a high school couple madly in love – they soon married, welcomed their firstborn, Ida, and later two boys. Twenty years later, their relationship has grown cold, they have lost the ability to see each other’s needs, and now they are getting divorced. Apathy and sadness intertwine with the sunshine of spotless memories – their farewell is written in the water, on land, by the chicken coop, in the children’s chatter, and on a scarecrow named Joan of Arc. Arrows fly in its direction, but they can hardly be called Cupid’s.

Movie is in Islandic with subtitles in Latvian and English.
