Two Thumbs Up | Just watched North Of The Sun and we highly recommend it. It’s about two norwegian surfers that spend the winter on a beach and make everything they need from the trash they find on the beach. It’s fresh, natural and authentic. Loved it.
It also just won three awards at Banff Mountain Film Festival including the Grand Prize. Here is what one of the jury, Richard Else said about the film:
“If it’s possible to have a perfect adventure film, then this year’s Grand Prize Winner comes about as close as you can get. A highly original adventure that’s captured in a film planned to perfection: a wonderful story, engaging personalities, breathtaking camera work, and expertly edited. It should be no surprise then that this was the unanimous choice of the jury. It’s a great privilege to present this years’ Grand Prize to two people who not only followed their dream but made a film so full of joy that we can all share in their adventure. If you ever thought the people of Norway are just a bit different from the rest of us… you must see this film.”
