What Lovers of the Arctic Circle Is About
Two people who meet as children lose and find each other across a lifetime, and the film tells the same events first through one of them and then through the other. Julio Medem places coincidence at the centre: both their names read the same backwards, and that game is extended into the structure of the whole thing. Splitting the narrative does not feel like repetition, because on the second pass the meaning of scenes you already know changes. The light and silence of the Finnish section are its most beautiful stretch.
