Paris of the North
Director:
Hafsteinn Gunnar Sigurðsson
Hugi is a teacher in a tiny village in the East of Iceland. He is quite content by himself among the mountains, which surround the quiet village where hardly anyone walks the streets. But has he withdrawn too far? When Hugi receives a phone call from his estranged father announcing his arrival he is not too pleased. But after consulting with his AA-sponsor, Hugi decides to welcome him. Something he immediately regrets.
