Jesper Ganslandt's second feature premiered at Venice and played at Tiff to generally positive reviews. Word is that it's better to go in without knowing much.
Krister, a husband and father wakes up to the consequences of a tragedy. He is a broken man, but not aware of it yet. Confronted with everyday reality, there is no place for escape and Krister is soon forced to face up to his actions. The Ape is about the struggle to hold on to things around us already lost. The question arises. What is left, when the life you once had is completely gone?
Trailer after the break.
