The award-winning director and actress, Paprika Steen, is one of the strong Scandinavian names in the sphere of the Seventh Art to keep an eye on. “That Time of Year” is a comedy turning into drama, which is related to Christmas, that really special time of the year. As it often happens in real life, family gatherings, especially those that happen around big holidays, tend to provoke an avalanche of emotions. These emotions range from pure melodrama to painful accusations and regrets. The film examines the things that tear families apart, along with those, that keep them strong together. This is what happens in Katrine and Mads' house – at the Christmas Eve, everyone has a place on the table: the divorced parents, the youngest sister and her new husband, the teenage daughter longing for her mother's attention.
