Le voyage au Groenland

What a wonderful way to discover Greenland with this touching story !

Great casting !

Recommend viewing.

This is a heart warming beautiful movie. Very Peaceful and funny at the same time.

I have been recently in Greenland. The movie brought me recent memories and the respect for the Inuits. The impressive whiteness and the majestic immensity of the ice and the blue sky and the small community make me feel humble. The performances are natural and believable. The son and his friend are very French and simple but sophisticated. The father is fantastic and the magnificent beauty from Greenland is merely wonderful. Susana

I came very close to absolutely falling in love with this film. A slightly unsatisfactory ending and underdeveloped relationship took something away from making it a truly remarkable film.

Despite that, I loved feeling like I had been transported to beautiful Greenland. In many ways, the landscapes of Greenland felt like the most prominent and well-developed character in the entire film. The cinematography was beautiful and constantly left me in awe.

Journey to Greenland often felt like a travelogue or documentary. I loved the slice-of-life vibe of it all and small, close-knit community atmosphere. I also found myself laughing out loud numerous times throughout the movie. The cultural barriers and fish-out-of-water aspects provided much of the humour.

If you're into French comedy or have an interest in Greenland, I highly recommend this film. Underrated little movie and a good reason to have Greenland on my bucket list.

Greenland's endless expanses of snow and ice fill the screen in this calm and beautiful movie. Told in sparse dialogue, the story is slow paced and gentle. Two young men from Paris, France, who are both named Thomas, visit the one's father who lives in a remote village in Greenland. They witness what his daily routine is like and spend time at gatherings with the community, laughing and chatting. At night they talk quietly about this and that since the constant daylight makes it difficult for them to go to sleep.

The Thomases are both mild mannered and soft spoken, and there is very little conflict in this film. It mostly shows a slice of life in this remote village as experienced by the two visitors. The modulated tones and wide empty vistas make this a relaxing and meditative film to watch.
