Dallas International Film Fest 2017 REVIEWS: Guðmundur Arnar Guðmundsson’s debut feature film, HEARTSTONE is a grand achievement

The visual transition is caught in wild nature, like much of the film, and offers a tiny flicker of hope – don’t blink or you’ll miss it – in a grand spontaneous gesture, as far from phony as you get in cinema. Truly, this work is a grand achievement, Guðmundsson’s first feature, hopefully foreshadowing an equally brilliant career to come.
