Havfolket (en. The Sea People) is a witty, grand and unrestrained declaration of love to the coastal people and an expansion of the story of the Norwegian. The film narrative combines unique archive footage with strong voices from the coast, and explores what life close to the sea and far from the center of power has done to the coastal people's temperament, way of life and outlook on life.
