O arqueólogo Sigurd (Pal Sverre Hagen) não consegue decifrar o mito de Ragnarok, que conta a história sobre o fim do mundo na mitolgia do Norte. Ele decide, então, fazer uma expedição junto com dois amigos e seus filhos. Essa aventura os leva até Finmark, no norte da Noruega, numa “terra de ninguém”, onde a população nunca entrou em contato com a modernidade. Eles começam a desvendar os segredos das ruínas do local, e descobrem uma verdade muito mais surpreendente do que esperavam.
A documentary showing how much pupils in a class at a school close to the Kings castle has common, even if they are of different background and personality, coming from all over the world.
13-year old Rikke sees Bea, the new girl in her class, as a challenge. After an endurance test to find which of them can lie longer in a circle of flames, they become friends. However, as a result of some unfortunate truths and half-truths, the friendship falters. Rikke feels that Bea has let her down, and resolves to continue the rivalry between them, but now in a less physical, more artful way. In addition we meet Rikke's elder sister Ninni, who has been in England to learn the language, and has had to leave her great love, a man twelve years her senior. The film is also about the problems Rikke encounters in fulfilling the expectations of those around her as she approaches womanhood.
