"What do you want to conquer?" This short film is almost too on-the-nose for the times we're living in. But it's an engaging and thought-provoking work and deserves to be seen anyway. Apocalypse Norway is a short film made by Norwegian filmmaker Jakob Rørvik about a group of teens on holiday, hiding out in a remote area of Norway in a huge house when an apocalyptic virus takes over the world. "As it reaches the heart of Europe, Oda realize they might be next." This stars Billie Barker, Kjetil Jore, Lotte Tomine Henningsen, Håkon Stubberud, Lea Meyer, & Lars Tafjord. The project is also a collaboration with electronica producer André Bratten. There's an intriguing mix of handheld, mobile phone cinematography and beautiful conventional shots. Rørvik explains the idea is inspired by a feeling in Norway of false security that comes from "belief in a never-ending growth of wealth and daily comforts.
