Synopsis

Far North (2008) — watch online on iFILM: a psychological thriller directed by Asif Kapadia, starring Michelle Yeoh and Sean Bean. A British-French production shot against desolate Arctic landscapes, the film pares human nature down to its coldest, most unforgiving elements.

Saiva (Michelle Yeoh) has built a survivable life far from the society that took everything from her. With her adopted daughter Anja, she keeps to strict rules of isolation — until Loki (Sean Bean), a starving and wounded soldier, collapses in the snow. They nurse him back to health. He repays them by unsettling the fragile order they've built. This is not a survival story in any conventional sense; it's a study of desire and dominance in a place where neither was supposed to exist. Watch Far North (2008) online on iFILM.
