Synopsis

We had a plan. Simple and beautiful: ride across Iceland as long as it takes to find the Queen of the Elves. The rest was just a matter of organization: how to sustain a whole family – me, my lover and our newborn little girl named Lirio – on a tandem bicycle; how to defeat Iceland’s snow storms, ashes storms, sand storms; how to find the Hidden Folk; how to meet the Visible Folk. That’s only far into the journey that a few things became obvious: Icelandic winds are a LOT stronger than we thought; a 100 kilos tandem bicycle isn’t exactly fit for the rugged 4×4 tracks of the icelandic desert; Icelandic rain can last for weeks on (weeks…); our daughter was eating rocks like a baby troll and somehow communicating with the Elves; the trailer into which we were carrying her broke once. Then twice. Then…

A Word From The Filmmaker

Incredible landscapes, an often wild and uncopromising environment ; a fascinating population which mixes discretion or shyness with pride and stubborness, as well as love for her land ; the personal challenge to ride around and across those baren, savage lands on a bike, fully autonomous, with a baby in towe ; the dreams and fantasies of the icelandic folk, their fairies, elves and other hidden creatures ; all of this is in the film, not to mention Planète.D’s usual yet so special sense of humour… !
