Driving Mum
12A

Hilmar Oddsson’s delightful dark comedy is an oddball odyssey of self-discovery and acceptance – set against the beautifully-photographed landscapes of Iceland. 
Comedy • Dark

Middle-aged and disappointed, Jón spends his days knitting and listening to the radio with his domineering elderly mother on their rural farmstead, but his isolated world is upended when she suddenly passes away.

Finding a series of instructions to follow upon her death, Jón sets out on a journey across the country to honour her final wishes – including being buried in her home village.

Beautifully filmed in crisp black and white, Driving Mum is a heartwarming, emotional film with a fantastic central performance from Þröstur Leó Gunnarsson.
