A powerful allegory of the dangers of misogyny, THE JUNIPER TREE is an Icelandic adaptation of a Brothers Grimm fairy tale, featuring a compelling early performance from Björk. When their mother is burned for witchcraft, sisters Margit and Katla take shelter with John and his young son Jonas. However, as a delicate new family unit starts to take shape, Katla’s own powers of sorcery begin to awaken.

The film will be introduced with a special mini-concert from celebrated Scottish musicians Rachel Newton and Alasdair Roberts.


A Folk Film Gathering event, in partnership with Tradfest, supported by Screen Scotland.
