CFF: The Love That Remains

Iceland, Denmark, Sweden, France, 2025, 109 mins. DIRECTOR: Hlynur Pálmason WITH: Saga Garðarsdóttir, Sverrir Guðnason Set against the sweeping landscapes of southern Iceland, a family facing the end of a marriage must find new ways to connect and create fresh memories—with a little help from moments of surreal fantasy. This fourth feature from acclaimed director Hlynur Pálmason—whose own children (and animals!) take on lead roles—beautifully explores how art, nature and family give us the roots we need to grow, while also honouring the quiet power of solitude and contemplation. Come for the charming story, stay for the dreamlike soundtrack—and prepare to be won over by ‘Palm Dog’ winner Panda, the scene-stealing Icelandic sheepdog. The Cambridge Film Festival is presented by the Cambridge Film Trust, a registered charity with a mission to foster film culture and education for the benefit of the public, in Cambridge, the Eastern region, and throughout the UK.
