Facing the ferocious Barent Sea – practically with an uninterrupted view to the North Pole – lies the small fishing village of Berlevåg. This is the place made world famous by Isak Dinesen as the setting for her noveletta “Babette’s Feast”. Now Berlevåg is making a second bid for international fame – through the 30-odd members of its very exotic and colourful male choir! With “Cool and Crazy” one of Norway’s most experienced and renowned feature film directors is bringing to the screen a world he knows and loves. And he does it in the spirit of the people he portrays, with irreverence and wit. And full emotional impact. For some this will be a film about men. For others it will be about love. Or politics. Or fish. Above all it is about the dignity of ordinary lives lived under extreme circumstances. For those that loved “Buena Vista Social Club” – this is the answer.
