“Rams” is named not only in honor of the sheep that are central to its story but also because of two men, as hardheaded and rambunctious as they come, who are devoted to the sheep but can’t stand each other. Written and directed by Grimur Hakonarson and winner of the Un Certain Regard prize at Cannes, “Rams” is the latest in a series of excellent films to come out of Iceland, including dramas like “The Deep,” “Jar City,” “Noi Albinoi” and “101 Reykjavik.” Serious and moving but also with a bleaker than bleak Scandinavian sense of humor, “Rams” is so much its own film that figuring out where its unusual, unpredictable plot will end up is difficult if not impossible. Director Hakonarson has a documentary background, and he and cinematographer Sturla Brandth Grovlen (who did the eye-catching “Victoria”) have shot “Rams” in Budardalur, in the north of Iceland, an area of remote and stunning landscapes that always engage the eye.
