TIME AND WATER Trailer: Sara Dosa Captures a Homeland Melting Away in Newest Documentary
Following her Oscar-nominated documentary Fire of Love, Sara Dosa returned to the Sundance Film Festival this year for her newest documentary, which captures the toll global warming is taking on Arctic regions. Time and Water documents the life of Icelandic writer Andri Snær Magnason and uses old footage he captured of his glacier-filled land during the early stages of melting. National Geographic Documentary Films will release it in theaters starting May 29, before launching on Hulu and Disney+ later this year.
Renowned Icelandic poet and author, Andri Snær Magnason, is chasing something elusive. As the glacial ice of his homeland melts, he constructs a cinematic time capsule to hold onto this moment and send it to the future, before everything he loves slips away. Using his own collected archives, his grandparents’ photographs and films as well as traditional songs and folktales, Andri interlaces his family’s story with that of the land around him. From Academy Award®-nominated director Sara Dosa, TIME AND WATER is a universal reflection on the power of home and what it means to be alive amid profound epochal change.
