YOUR RATING

Archeologist Sigurd Svendsen (PÃ¥l Sverre Hagen) has for years been obsessed with the Oseberg Viking ship. The only inscription found on the ship is the enigmatic Â´man knows little` written in runes. Sigurd is sure that the Oseberg ship contains the answer to the mystery of Ragnarok, the end of days in Norse mythology. When his friend Allan finds similar runes on a stone from the north of Norway, Sigurd becomes convinced that the runes are in fact a treasure map. Together they mount an expedition group and their adventure leads to Â“No manÂ’s LandÂ” between Norway and Russia, which has been deserted for decades. Here Sigurd learns the true meaning of the runes Â– a secret more terrifying than he could possibly imagine.

Trivia
The language spoken in beginning of film, Old Norse, is very similar to modern Icelandic.

Goofs
When walking through the forest to get to the lake several oak trees are visible in the background. As this movie is set in Finnmark on the border toward Russia the climate is too cold for oak. This indicates the scenes have been shot further south.

Quotes
Åsa: I do not like this.
Vikingkongen: It is Odin's wish.

Crazy credits
In the closing credits in the section for special thanks, the filmmakers added "Should anyone have been forgotten, we did not mean to do so :)".

nice

Adventure, mythology, family life, old spirit of childhood. A beautiful film. Not good, great, ot unpredictable. But the right choice for young public and for their parents for nice memories. A map becoming warning. Idealism and not the perfect father. The truth and the confrontation against it and the end. So, real nice. But not for high expectations.
