The Ice Tower, Lucile Hadzihalilovic

The Ice Tower is the newest film by Lucile Hadzihalilovic starring Marion Cotillard and newcomer Clara Pacini, in a film-within-a-film about a movie star filming the fairytale, The Snow Queen, and a young girl's obsession with that story. While some may find the film moves at a glacial pace, it features incredible cinematography that blends dreams and film sequences together. It is an incredibly personal story from the director that proves filmmaking and dreaming are not that different after all.
