The work directed by Joachim Trier, once attracted international attention when it received 9 nominations at the Academy Awards and won the Grand Prix at the Cannes Film Festival.
According to the plan, the movie "The House of Memories" will be released in Vietnam from March 20, 2026 by June Films and Galaxy Studio. This is considered a remarkable effort by distribution units to bring international art films closer to domestic audiences.
The official poster of the film impresses with a minimalist layout but evokes many thoughts. The images of the characters standing in the quiet space of an old house create a nostalgic feeling, while revealing the central theme of the work: family memories and hurt relationships. The poster also introduces the main cast including Renate Reinsve, Stellan Skarsgård, Elle Fanning and Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas.
The trailer of House of Memories brings a clearer view of the film's content. The story revolves around Gustav - a famous director who has been away from his family for many years. When he suddenly returns with a new film project, old memories and conflicts between him and his two daughters gradually arise.
The character Gustav played by Stellan Skarsgård is a talented artist but has many shortcomings in his personal life. He wants to make the film as a way to face the past and find opportunities to heal with his family. However, this project itself causes old wounds to be reopened, creating many emotional conflicts between the characters.
A noteworthy point in the trailer is the appearance of Rachel, a young movie star played by Elle Fanning. Her participation in Gustav's project has created many changes in the relationships between the characters, and at the same time made the already complex family story even more tense.
Besides emotional content, the film also impresses with its image style imbued with European cinematic style. Slow, restrained narration and aesthetic frames are considered familiar imprints in Joachim Trier's filmmaking style.
Before being released to Vietnamese audiences, Sentimental Value received many positive reviews from international critics. The work is considered a personal story about memories, family and emotional wounds that people have to face in modern life.
