Feeling emasculated by the modern world, Martin has fled his family to live high up in the Norwegian mountains – clothed in furs, and hunting and gathering like his ancestors did thousands of years ago before supermarkets and smartphones ruined everything (though he still uses both!). But his questionable self-actualisation project is interrupted when he meets Musa, an injured drug runner lost in the woods. Together, this odd couple join forces as they’re chased through the wilderness by local police chief Øyvind, Musa’s rivals and Martin’s rather irritated wife.

A sharply observed, comedy of errors with a madcap narrative, blending deadpan wit and outbursts of violence to great effect. This film explores modern man in a satirical yet affectionate way. A fresh, absurdist look at a mid-life crisis.
