Icelandic filmmaker Haukur Björgvinsson imagines a future society where citizens are assigned new romantic partners by lottery every seven years. A young couple in love watch their calendars with devastation, anticipating the day when they will be broken up and forced to live with a stranger. A phenomenal film. – Mitch Davis
