There are no current or future screenings planned for this film.

Time, like the palindromic names of step-siblings Ana and Oto, moves backward and forward. But, no matter the direction, their taboo love ensures romance will remain far from their grasp. Weaving a dizzying affair from Spain to the vast emptiness of Finland’s hinterland stretching into the Arctic Circle, LOVERS is “a sweepingly beautiful film about romantic obsession” (New York Times) from Julio Medem (SEX AND LUCIA, THE RED SQUIRREL). Featuring a swoon-worthy score from Pedro Almodóvar collaborator Alberto Iglesias and starring Najwa Nimri and Fele Martínez (BAD EDUCATION).
