Lovers Of The Arctic Circle (1998) - Details

"Otto discovers that his dad's new girlfriend is the mother of ana, the girl he has worshipped from afar since a chance meeting in the park. Dividing the film into segments, medem is able to impose a compelling order onto the seemingly endless round of chances and coincidences that colludes with the lovers' own caprices to forge their destiny. It's an essentially human story, with the more novelettish aspects of the melodrama being redeemed by the originality of the ideas and the precision of the direction." (David parkinson, empire)
