Hello all!
I was wondering if anyone has seen Godland (2022) dir. Hlynur Pálmason and cinematography by Maria von Hausswolff? I finally managed to watch it yesterday and was amazed by the cinematography.
The film follows a priest who is also a wet plate photographer in late 19c Iceland on a mission to build a church and photograph the inhabitants of the island. The way that the cinematography engages with the history of stills photography is very interesting – and just from a practical point of view it’s an incredible feat to have created such a beautiful film in the conditions they did.
Kodak did a write up about it if anyone is interested: https://www.kodak.com/en/motion/blog-post/godland/
I’d love to hear other peoples thoughts on it if anyone has seen it! If not, i’d highly recommend watching it. Unfortunately I missed seeing it in the cinema, so I watched it on DVD, I think it’s maybe available on Curzon home cinema now too.
Thanks and I hope everyone has a nice weekend!
