Short description

Although theorised, no one is really ready when a mountain pass above the scenic and narrow Geiranger fjord in Norway collapses and creates a tsunami over 300 feet high. A geologist is one of those caught in the middle of it.

What's left behind the scenes

  • The film was submitted by Norway for the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film.
  • At first glance, the distance between the observation point and Geirangerfjord seems small. In reality, you can get from one to the other either by car and two ferries, or by car and one ferry.
  • It is the highest-grossing Norwegian film of 2015.
  • Sondre stays in room 217 at the hotel, as in Stephen King's famous novel "The Shining".
