Background
Grimefjord stated that his wish was to make an about Vikings which was more rooted in the Icelandic saga tradition and based on historical knowledge and facts about Vikings and Norse mythology rather than cliches. He also wanted to challenge the view that the conversion was free of violence and pain. The film will feature minimal dialogue. A pilot trailer featuring music by Wardruna was released on November 6, 2013.
