August’s movie is “Godland”

“A young priest travels from Denmark to Iceland in the late 19th century, where his mission is mocked by nature and by the corruptibility of his faith in Hlynur Pálmason’s striking elemental epic… In Godland, man’s ambitions, even in relation to matters as seemingly pure as faith and spirituality, are revealed to be fragile, small, and helpless against the omnipotent forces of an unforgiving natural world.

This knockout drama represents a considerable leap in maturity and ambition that merits commensurate attention.”

– David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter
