Byttinger

Seven young people from the urban jungle are transported to an isolated mountain farm deep in the mountains. There are three girls and four boys. Since childhood, they have always been dealt the worst cards. They know more about prostitution, drugs, violence, and escape than they do about trust and love. Two social workers accompany them to the mountains. They believe that pure nature and new experiences can have a positive effect on the young people's destructive tendencies. But the mountains and isolation from the outside world hold surprises that no one in the group is prepared for.

Directed by Sigve Endresen, Byttinger leans on a strong ensemble — Bjarte Hjelmeland, Stig Henrik Hoff, Mona Hofland — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1991.
