The Sunlit Night follows aspiring painter Frances (Jenny Slate) from New York City to the farthest reaches of Arctic Norway, for an assignment she hopes will invigorate her work and expand her horizons. In a remote village, among the locals, she meets fellow New Yorker Yasha (Alex Sharp), who has come in search of a proper Viking funeral only to find that Chief Haldor (Zach Galifianakis) is but a re-enactor from Cincinnati. The eclectic crew ranges from ‘home’ to ‘lost’ within the extreme and dazzling landscape of the Far North. Under a sun that never quite sets and the high standards of an unforgiving mentor, Frances must navigate between ambition, desire, obligation and risk to find a way forward. TV-MA | 1hr 45min
