Svar við bréfi Helgu eftir Ásu Helgu Hjörleifsdóttur og Dýrið eftir Valdimar Jóhannsson eru meðal þeirra mörgu væntanlegu mynda sem Screen telur að vekja muni áhuga kvikmyndahátíða á árinu.
Í frétt Screen segir um Svar við bréfi Helgu:
After 2017 debut The Swan, Hjörleifsdottir takes on another beloved Icelandic book for her second feature. In a remote fjord in 1940s Iceland, a young farmer (played by The Swan star Thor Kristjansson) embarks on a forbidden affair with an aspiring poet (Hera Hilmar). The project reunites Hjörleifsdottir with The Swan producer Birgitta Björnsdottir, who produces with Skuli Fr Malmquist.
Um Dýrið segir Screen:
This supernatural drama stars Noomi Rapace and Hilmir Snær Guðnason as an Icelandic couple who adopt a new-born child that is half-human, half-sheep. Firsttime feature director Valdimar Jóhannsson co-wrote the script with acclaimed Icelandic author and poet Sjón, who has also worked with Robert Eggers on The Northman. Post-production was completed in late 2020.
