Synopsis:

A beautiful nightmare is buried under a mountain of ice and snow...

What could be better than knowing your future? And what could be worse? A love-filled childhood abruptly ends when catastrophe descends in a remote Icelandic village. One that the child had foreseen yet failed to act upon...

The same child is now a 40-year-old man, hiding in a self-made prison of mundane life. As Cold Light opens, he is an arts student. He begins a relationship with his teacher that brings him closer to another person than he has been since he lost his own family. Not wanting to lose her, he finally resolves to examine his unthinkable past. He pushes away the cobwebs to find that light and happiness have been awaiting him - and this haunting tragedy is transformed into a defiantly uplifting work of art.
