The Bountiful Land - Icelandic Food Tradition and Food History
Director of Photography
Elín Methúsalemsdóttir and her family, from the old farm Bustarfell, take us through the history of Icelandic food traditions, from the settlement period to the present day. In the beginning, Icelandic cooking was characterized by scarcity, and Icelanders had to be extremely resourceful with the little that nature provided. Now, however, the Icelandic kitchen exists in the modern world, influenced by immigration, food tourism, and global trends in farming and cuisine.

Caught
Sound Engineer
A guy gets caught while sneaking out of bed after a night with a blonde beauty. Caught is a short story which contains a little bit of love, considerable violence, but mainly humour. It gives us an insight into a situation that most people can relate to, a situation that a lot of people have already experienced, but everyone desperately wants to avoid… or don’t they? Though the film is short, it’s larger than you expect.
