Synopsis

Swedish-Icelandic documentary film commissioned by Iceland's tourist board, which in magnificent color photography links the heritage from the fairy tale era with contemporary Iceland. The film was produced in two language versions – one in Swedish and one in Icelandic – different soundtracks and subtitles, but where the moving images were the same.
