Land Ho!

Aaron Katz was born to go to Iceland: his best film, the beautiful ‘Quiet City’, was a mumblecore romance with a very Scandinavian sense of humour, and his last film, a similarly dry detective story, was even called ‘Cold Weather’. Teaming up with ‘Passenger Pigeons’ director Martha Stephens, he’s heading off to the frozen north for this road-trip comedy about a pair of brothers-in-law on a mission to reclaim their lost youth in the nightspots of Reykjavik. Films this tiny don’t always get a UK release, but with a premiere at Sundance and an exec-producer credit for ‘Pineapple Express’ director David Gordon Green, we’re hoping ‘Land Ho!’ makes the crossing.
