This 2013 Icelandic political drama centers around a prominent member of the Nordic nation's parliament who can be seen as a lush, a womanizer, an alcoholic and a generally shoddy individual behind his well-practiced public face. When the man's close friend and political superior, the Prime Minister of Iceland, forces the protagonist to enter into rehab, he throws one last party as a send-off to his boyish, libertine ways.
At the party, a collection of guests, friends and secret loves meet for a meal and much drinking as viewers are taken on a journey that reveals their darkest secrets. While not overtly tackling political issues, the film serves as an allegory for contemporary Icelandic society.
XL is a 2013 drama with a runtime of 1 hour and 28 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.6.
