Cold

Ódinn (Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson) is a detective who is deeply affected by the sudden death of his ex-wife, who commits suicide by jumping out of a window. The protagonist must deal with his new life and help his daughter, Aldís (Elín Hall), to fight her lost. His grandmother (and the mother of the recently deceased) wants to get closer to the little girl, but Ódinn refuses.

To get things worse, a coworker offers him the chance to investigate an old childhood home where children were allegedly mistreated and even sentenced to death. However, as he arrives to the place, Ódinn discovers that it has been abandoned for years. His next step will be to visit the maid who worked there in 1984. Even so, things take a turn when the protagonist's daughter begins to paint eerie drawings that seem to predict what is about to happen.

Icelandic director Erlingur Thoroddsen directs and co-writes this film with screenwriter Yrsa Sigurðardóttir.
