Plots(1)
Told with deadpan Nordic humor and a touch of surrealism, Parents follows Kjeld and Vibeke, two empty-nesters who find themselves unable to let go of the past. Stripped of their identity without their son, who recently moved away from home, they attempt to reclaim their youthful vigor by moving back into the old apartment where they first fell in love, only to realize that everything that once defined them might no longer exist. (Tribeca Film Festival)
