A young woman loses her boyfriend in a terrible accident but must bear the grief alone, as their relationship was a closely guarded secret within their small group of friends. This captivating and visually stunning film unfolds over the course of a single summer day. Despite its brief 82-minute runtime, it explores a powerful spectrum of emotions—from fear, despair, and sadness to happiness and hope—all conveyed through director Rúnar Rúnarsson’s signature blend of humor, warmth, and raw poetry in an exceptionally well-framed cinematic experience.

Since its premiere at last year’s Cannes Film Festival, When the Light Breaks has won several international awards, including Best Feature Film at the Nuuk International Film Festival 2024 and, most recently, Best Nordic Film at the Gothenburg Film Festival 2025.
