Sentimental Value (Blu-Ray, #1311)

Joachim Trier, one of contemporary cinemas great humanists, excavates layers of history and memoryboth national and personalfor this rich, ineffably moving story of one familys attempts to come to terms with generations of trauma and healing. After the death of their mother, two sisters must contend with the return home to Norway of their estranged father, celebrated filmmaker Gustav Borg (Stellan Skarsgrd). In the case of Nora (Renate Reinsve), an actor, he hopes to reconnect by casting her in his new filma project that both inflicts fresh wounds and reopens old ones. With a virtuoso ensemble cast that also includes Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas (in a breakout performance) and Elle Fanning, Triers film delicately balances each moment of humor and hurt, conducting a stunning emotional exploration of how the past echoes in the present and art can transform pain into catharsis.
