Overview

A documentary by Ásthildur Kjartansdóttir focusing on two Thai women who originally came to Iceland to work in the fisheries but later settled with two Icelanders in the Öxarfjördur-region in the North-East of Iceland, one of them a shop-keeper and the other a sheep-farmer. The film not only shows daily life in rural Iceland near the Polar Circle but also the couples' trip to Thailand where life and surroundings are dramatically different to Öxarfjördur.
