The Mountain (Fjellet)

On the majestic and harsh slopes of a Norwegian mountain, Nora and Solveig are embarking on the most physical and emotionally challenging journey of their lives; a journey that will either strengthen or end their relationship. 

In the bitter conditions of their beautifully bleak environment, the pent up emotions of the women surface as they revisit the site of a recent tragedy that has forever changed them as individuals and as a couple.

Pushing the lovers to their limits, the journey reveals their fundamental differences. Each step they take leads them closer to the painful truth, and eventually, to each other.
