Summer 1983: nine-year-old Lars spends the holidays with his father on the father's childhood farm in western Norway. One day they climb the mountain without water, almost without food, but each with a rifle, and the father keeps disappearing. Is it a test of manhood, or a strange way of teaching survival? A tale of father and son and of love under pressure.
