В далёком 1974 году, увидев по телевизору выступление на Евровидении группы ABBA с песней «Waterloo», маленький исландский мальчик Ларс твёрдо решил, что когда-нибудь обязательно там выступит и победит. Много лет спустя Ларс уже немолод, всё ещё живёт с отцом, но свою мечту не оставил и исполняет песни собственного сочинения с подругой детства Сигрит. Хотя их группа Fire Saga выступает в местном баре, жители городка не хотят слушать самодеятельность и постоянно требуют кабацкий хит «Jaja Ding Dong». Однажды эльфы услышали просьбы Сигрит, и внезапно Fire Saga получает шанс участвовать в Евровидении.

В 1974 году на музыкальном конкурсе "Евровидение" победу одержала никому не известная группа из Швеции. Сперва казалось, что это лишь мимолетный успех, который вскоре забудется, как случалось уже не раз. Но прошло немного времени – и короткое слово "АББА" было на слуху во всем мире. Каждая новая песня становилась хитом. Интересные музыкальные решения, трогательные и подчас весьма глубокие тексты, великолепный вокал двух солисток и, конечно, неповторимое обаяние всех четырех участников группы принесли ей любовь миллионов поклонников.

The pro-Palestinian, anti-capitalist, BDSM-provocative, techno-punk performance art ensemble (!)

Should they boycott the event, swallow their idealism or use their airtime to criticise the host country for their illegal occupation of Palestine? The Icelandic director Anna Hildur joins the boys in the band all the way to the fateful final. Produced by the team behind the Nick Cave film '20,000 days on Earth'.

In December 2016 a remarkable chapter in music history was closed as the Finnish punk rock band Pertti Kurikan Nimipäivät (PKN) retired. Punk Voyage is a feature length documentary film about the last years of the band, with all the ups and downs included.
