Halló!
This week, at the height of summer, Rob and Ellie celebrate Christmas and New Year in Iceland with Rúnar Rúnarsson's Echo!
A beguiling and emotional series of real and staged vignettes exploring the many experiences of the Icelandic festive season.
There's the oldies aqua aerobics, a New Year's birth, a particularly awkward meeting between half-sisters, beer theft, and many more scenes running the gamut of emotions and specifically Icelandic traditions.
It'll melt your heart (if the summer heat hasn't already).
