About Brother Troll
In the stark, isolated Faroe Islands of 1898, two brothers grapple with profound grief after their eldest sibling's death, igniting a tragicomic feud born from their clashing views on faith, duty, and family. As their rivalry escalates with dark humor and dangerous pranks, they confront the raw, beastly nature of brotherhood in an unforgettable, fable-like showdown.
Directed by Gudmund Helmsdal, Brother Troll leans on a strong ensemble — Nicolaj Falck, Búi Dam — 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 2021.
