Kids know more about life than we acknowledge. Before computers and i-phones they read Dr. Seuss and were looked upon as innocent about real life. It seems now that adults are more ready to talk to children as though they were adults and not too cautious about what they let the little ones see. This point is made in \u00c1sa Helga Hj\u00f6rleifsd\u00f3ttir\u2019s freshman full-length feature which stars the adorable Gr\u00edma Valsd\u00f3ttir as a nine-year-old who is bright, curious, and a veritable sponge, picking up new things that she learns every day and trying to parse the emotions on display from a group of farmers in rural Iceland.<\/p>\n

As S\u00f3l, the child\u2014who was cast in \u201cThe Swan\u201d after a far-and-wide search and eventually scouted when the director saw her in a staged version of Pippi Longstocking\u2014is sent by her mother to the child\u2019s great aunt north of the capital. Though she a first resents the move\u2014her mom was motivated because the girl was caught stealing and the farm was seen as a corrective\u2014she soon adapts to the various folks in the family which boards her. She becomes particularly close to J\u00f3n (Thor Kristjansson), who spends every summer with them doing chores and using his free time to write voluminous notes in a journal. (Somebody in the crew seems to have spent long days and nights copying Icelandic notes longhand, filling several notebooks which are vetted by the young girl.)<\/p>\n

These farmers are not the happy workers depicted in kids\u2019 picture-books\u2014the ones that are mistakenly given to urban youngsters who cannot relate to any of the nonsense. Nobody here resembles \u201cHeidi\u2019s Farm Friends,\u201d \u201cMrs. Wishy-Washa\u2019s Farm,\u201d \u201cDown by the Farm,\u201d and \u201cJigaree.\u201d Collegian daughter \u00c1sta, just back from college in Reykjavik, is morose, as her boyfriend ditched her for another. She complains to her parents that they are using medieval techniques to milk the cows and will be crushed by the big guys. For his part J\u00f3n, who writes for therapy as he confesses that his life has been a mess, takes advantage of \u00c1sta\u2019s misery with a one-night stand that is witnessed by S\u00f3l. He feels a kinship with the child who he believes could herself become a writer. S\u00f3l. helps deliver a calf, shown in full detail by German cinematographer Martin Neumeyer, but even that happy event becomes a source of more misery for S\u00f3l. when the calf is slaughtered despite being treated as a pet by the child.<\/p>\n

The fairy-tale nature of the tale is climaxed when S\u00f3l goes to the lake in the mountains where a swan, a monster by myth, is said to lure people to their deaths. She is determined to face up to the handsome creature, given emotional fortitude by her summer\u2019s life with this melancholy family, which gives her resolve never to depend on people again because they are at least as fragile and vulnerable as she feels.<\/p>\n

S\u00f3l captures the director\u2019s interest, the girl appearing in most frames with a look of curiosity to the strange people surrounding her, obviously learning more about both physical nature and human nature than she could from a schoolbook. The actress, whose real age is not revealed by internet sources like the IMDB, has a remarkable debut and can expect other offers to follow. The film as a whole, which was shown at the Scandinavian Film Festival, is slow moving and mostly evenly pitched. The relationship of the girl to the summer worker, which appears to be headed into pervert territory as he wraps his arms around her at bedtime, is innocent enough in a picture that is a pleasure to watch, a coming of age story that in fact reveals changes in outlook not only of S\u00f3l but of the summer farmhand and the family college girl as well.<\/p>\n
