Cold Light

Kaldaljós

Grimur, a troubled teenager, can't come to terms with a feeling of guilt he has carried since he lost his family in a tragedy that he thinks he could have prevented.

In his childhood, a mystical talent had tormented him with visions of the future - now he must learn to let go of the haunting visions of his past and accept all the good things that life has to offer.
