He skilfully constructs his film as part-thriller, part-intelligent relationship drama, topped with a juicy dollop of savage black comedy.

The superb cast, particularly the steely-eyed resolve of Edda Björgvinsdóttir’s Inga, do marvels in maintaining the tricky tone.

It’s a funny, silly yarn that weaves together the comic and the tragic without ever really tipping things over the edge. And it’s interesting to see an Icelandic film which is entirely urban and domestic in its settings...

What is Under the Tree about? Toggle content

In the suburbs of Reykjavik, a seemingly trivial dispute between neighbors over a tree's shadow escalates into a full-blown turf war, with catastrophic consequences. Atli, the protagonist, is caught in the middle of the conflict and struggles to navigate his way through a battlefield of egos, lies, and broken relationships. As tensions rise and alliances are tested, Under the Tree delves into the darker side of human nature, revealing how quickly a tranquil neighborhood can turn into a powder keg of anger and desperation. With its crisp dialogue and absurdist humor, this Icelandic comedy-drama offers a piercing commentary on the fragility of human relationships and the unpredictability of life in the suburbs.
