We have selected Joachim Trier’s highly anticipated Sentimental Value—from the director who delicately captured modern love and anxiety in The Worst Person in the World (2021)—as our 'August Curator’s Choice.' Exploring the emotional turbulence between a filmmaker father and his actress daughter, long-estranged since the mother's death, who reunite to shoot an autobiographical film, this work is deeply infused with the director's profound insights into family heritage, art, and the weight of memory. It is a captivating film highlighted by the complex and nuanced father-daughter performance crafted by Renate Reinsve—who won Best Actress at the Cannes Film Festival for The Worst Person in the World—and acclaimed actor Stellan Skarsgård, all elevated by Trier’s signature sophisticated mise-en-scène and profound emotional depth.
