On the roof of a luxury hotel, Fausto and Nadine meet by chance. He is a waiter at the hotel, she an aspiring model who has just run away from an audition. Up there, on the roof overlooking all of Paris, a grand love affair is born that will span both France and Italy, nightclubs and prisons, passion, violence and money. Love turns out to be a difficult thing in a world governed by greed and selfishness. Elio Germano and Astrid Berges-Frisbey play the two lovers at war with the world with an intense physical presence. Alaska is a love story that turns up the volume but still manages to capture the finer nuances of a turbulent relationship. (Göteborg Film Festival)
