Our next Nordic Nights feature is the Icelandic film Virgin Mountain (2015) by Dagur Kári.

Synopsis

This Icelandic dramedy tells the story of Fúsi, a gentle giant in his mid-40s whose life has been a little stuck—but that’s about to change. When he starts a course at a local aerobics class, his quiet world collides with love, awkwardness, and the unexpected joys of stepping out of your comfort zone. Directed by Dagur Kári, Virgin Mountain is a heartfelt, funny, and tender portrait of one man’s journey toward connection and self-discovery. Perfect for fans of quirky, character-driven stories with heart.
