Museum of Fine Arts, Houston presents another in its New Releases series. Enjoy these critically acclaimed, award-winning international films as they make their Houston debut!

Rams (Hrutar)

Directed by Grímur Hákonarson
2015, in Icelandic with English subtitles
(Iceland/Denmark/Norway/Poland
93 minutes
DCP

Winner of the Un Certain Regard award at Cannes, Rams tells the tale of two sheep farmers whose decades-long feud is interrupted by a contagious disease threatening their flock.

With keen observation and gently sardonic humor, the film offers an incisively satirical take on the Icelandic values of independence and self-reliance. Driven by the two stellar performances of its leads, Rams is warm-hearted, funny, and distinctively Scandinavian.
