How can you move on after losing the one you love? On a small farm outside Kongsberg, a family lives an alternative life in nature, but the harmony ends when the mother is diagnosed with cancer and passes away. The four children pose different questions, and the father tries his best to assume the parental role that he and his wife used to share. As he processes his own grief, he also realizes that they may have to let go of all their dreams.

Previously, Silje Evensmo Jacobsen has been a creator and director of the TV series Team Ingebrigtsen, but with A New Kind of Wilderness, she has made a quite different family portrait – both in form and content. Moving towards an unknown future is like a long-distance race without a finish line, and it is all conveyed through questioning and contemplative gazes from the perspectives of both children and adults.

This is a powerful and touching documentary about life that must go on – but perhaps one must find new ways to live it. The film was one of two Norwegian documentaries selected for the prestigious Sundance Festival earlier this year. It won the jury prize for best documentary.
