<span data-sheets-root="1" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Roboto, Arial; color: rgb(67, 67, 67);">Winner of the prestigious Palme d’Or at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, the latest from writer -director Cristian Mungiu is a gripping high-stakes courtroom drama driven by a profound moral dilemma. Lisbet (Renate Reinsve, TIFF ’25’s Sentimental Value) and Mihai Gheorghiu (Sebastian Stan, TIFF ’23’s Dumb Money) are a conservative Christian couple who’ve relocated from Romania to an isolated Norwegian town with their five children. Unlike their new neighbours, the Gheorghius enforce daily bible study and don’t allow trappings like smartphones and YouTube. The family’s rigid beliefs cause a stir when one of the children is accused of introducing religious bias into their school by criticizing another student’s sexual orientation. This, however, is just the beginning of the family’s problems. When a teacher notices a bruise on another of their kids, a cascade of events — mimicking the avalanches we see behind the schoolyard in the icy locale — is set in motion. <br>Fjord is an intricate, gripping courtroom drama driven by a profound moral dilemma, where private lives are laid bare for public scrutiny. Shot by frequent Mungiu collaborator Tudor Vladimir Panduru, the film marks a powerful return for the auteur whose 2007 masterpiece 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days helped launch the celebrated Romanian New Wave. </span><br>PT2H26M152026-12-07Sebastian Stan
