The Danish Institute at Athens
Information
Join us for this screening of Paprika Steen's Christmas dramedy, That Time of Year
This year at Katrine and Mads' house the family will once again be united around Christmas Eve and on a traditional holiday like this, there has to be room for everyone; the divorced parents, the youngest sister and her new husband and not least the teenage daughter of the family, struggling to get her mother's attention. Underneath the surface the explosion lurks as flammable as a dry spruce and when the truth starts to appear, the illusion of holiday peace, that we so deeply insist on, shatters.
After the film there will be a small reception at The Danish Institute.
Organised in collaboration with the Danish Embassy in Greece
