Four stories from the Nordic region paint a picture of a changing natural world, where the elements rage and where being prepared proves to be much more than sandbags and fire extinguishers.

Two lost souls with incongruent world views meet again and again under strange circumstances and it will gradually become clear that they are connected by some force, which is bigger the they can fathom.

Dania is 21 years old and grew up in a Christian community in the Faroe Islands’ Bible belt. She has just moved to Tórshavn and is seeing Trygvi, a hip-hop artist and poet locally known as Silvurdrongur (Silver Kid). He comes from a secular family and writes poems and texts about the shadow sides of humanity. Dania herself sings in a Christian band but is fascinated by Trygvi’s courage to write brutally honest lyrics. As she tries to find her place in the world and understand herself, she starts to write more personal texts. Her writings develop into a collection of critical poems called ‘Skál’ (‘Cheers’), about the double life that she and other youths must live in the conservative Christian world.

In a small Faroese village, four men find a sealed liquor barrel washed ashore at low tide. They hustle the heavy barrel into a basement, away from the prying eyes. Soon, however, the sneaking suspicion arises that instead of liquor, the mysterious barrel might in fact contain something else. Tensions run high as the host, Símun, eventually has to handle both the negotiations down in the basement, as well as his distrustful wife upstairs.

A creative portrait of Faroese artist Sigrun Gunnarsdóttir and the mountainous landscapes that inspire her. Warm, colourful and imaginative, just as her paintings have made her the country’s most beloved artist.

In the stark, isolated Faroe Islands of 1898, two brothers grapple with profound grief after their eldest sibling's death, igniting a tragicomic feud born from their clashing views on faith, duty, and family. As their rivalry escalates with dark humor and dangerous pranks, they confront the raw, beastly nature of brotherhood in an unforgettable, fable-like showdown.

STAY is a short film depicting two people going their separate ways. A story about connecting while departing. About loneliness in togetherness. A love story about sharing, taking, losing, wanting and not wanting one another.
