The Summer Book 12A

At her family’s home on a Finnish island, young Sophia explores the natural world with her father and grandmother (Glenn Close). Over the course of the summer, the trio quietly navigates the weight of a recent family loss amidst the sublime Baltic vistas of sea and sunlight. Adapted from Tove Jansson’s beloved novella based on her own family memories, this is a delicate and meditative account of family, growing up and growing old.
