Our take

Death is the theme that marks the destiny of Dina, who constantly detaches herself from those she loves. One of the biggest Norwegian productions of its moment, I Am Dina features an impressive cast of legends including Gérard Depardieu, Maria Bonnevie, Christopher Eccleston and Mads Mikkelsen.
