About this film

Florida Premiere. Songs of Earth is a majestic symphony for the big screen. With director Margreth Olin's 85-year-old father as a guide, we experience Norway's most scenic valley, Oldedalen in Nordfjord. This is where he grew up and where generations before him have lived in balance with nature. Majestic images of wild mountains, calving glaciers, and bustling wildlife go side by side with her parents' stories about the generations who trod the trails, the relationship we have with nature, and what is valuable in life. This is a stunning, cinematic work about life, death, nature and about simply being present in the world.
