Valdimar Johannsson's off-kilter folktale "Lamb" is very much landed in visceral reality. Set on an Icelandic sheep farm somewhere in the mountains, time and attention are paid to the day-to-day grounded detail of the farm, and its occupants the many sheep and lambs who live within its stalls, and the wife, Maria (Noomi Rapace), and husband Ingvar (Hilmir Snaer Gudnason) who tend to them.
This movie is baaad (sorry, I couldn’t resist). Unless you’re a pretentious movie critic that likes anything “artsy”, ewe will be very disappointed (okay, that was the last one).
