At odds with the world, his family and himself, newlyretired<br />

Hannes struggles to find a place in, and a<br />

meaning to, his new life. Depressive and curmudgeonly<br />

by nature, Hannes is condescended to by his son and<br />

daughter and almost unnoticeably attended to by his<br />

submissive wife, Anna. The apparent emptiness of his life<br />

is punctuated only by the solitary pleasures of smoking<br />

and going out in his decrepit fishing boat. However,<br />

when Anna’s health dramatically fails, Hannes finds<br />

his purposefulness reignited. Her illness raises acute<br />

emotional, physical and ethical challenges for Hannes<br />

Ten years after Yossi and Jagger, the tragic love story<br />

of two IDF officers serving in Lebanon, director Eytan<br />

Fox returns to find out what has happened with Yossi.<br />

Dr. Yossi Hoffman has become a valued and dedicated<br />

cardiologist, often using his work as a way to escape his<br />

anguished life. He lives alone, still closeted, unable to<br />

that director Rúnar Rúnarsson addresses in a direct and powerful<br />

fashion. Rúnarsson shoots the Icelandic landscape in a naturalistic but<br />

gently poetic style and Theodor Júlíusson is quietly majestic as Hannes.<br />

His journey is both painful and liberating. Like the volcanic island from<br />

which he hails, he is a powerful spirit prone both to simmering silence<br />

and dramatic eruption. In the end Volcano is a fresh and poignant view<br />

of the passions, disappointments and challenges of aging.<br />
