Thórhildur
Después de algunos años, Ossy va a visitar a su antiguo compañero de juergas Jimmy, que vive en Islandia. Jimmy no le recibe muy entusiasmado ya que ahora tiene un trabajo, una casa y está viviendo con Anna, con la que tiene un hijo y a la que tampoco ha contado nada sobre su pasado salvaje y criminal. La falta de sinceridad hace que la vida perfecta de Jimmy se convierta en un infierno, y culpa por ello a Ossy, que tampoco le ha contado la verdadera y trágica causa de su visita al que probablemente sea el único amigo que ha tenido alguna vez.
Þura
A whale-boat is making its final whaling tour of the season. It pursues and catches a whale, and then proceeds home. The men working on the boat have to find themselves different employment now that the season is over. Among the crew are two friends, Grímur and Bubbi. They are well- seasoned and experienced seamen of the kind that never puts down roots anywhere. Grímur is not the kind of man to allow much to set him off balance. When he arrives on land he heads directly for the capital where he intends to make a new start and get himself involved in the night life. With him is his faithful and rather troll-like companion, Bubbi. The film then mainly concerns itself with their efforts to make some kind of contact with what is going on in Reykjavik.
