Curiosidades
The title of the film in Danish (Vanskabte Land) Icelandic translates to something more like "wretched land" or perhaps "godforsaken land" rather than "Godland" in the English title,

Pifias
In one scene a character is seen playing a Scandalli accordion. This is an anachronism: the story takes place at the end of the 19th century while the Scandalli brothers began producing accordions in the early 20th century and the Scandalli company was founded in 1916.

Beautifully filmed tribute to the Icelandic landscape and the people that used to live there

The film has some amazing imagery, it is intriguing, it has drama, mistery and above all, it shows the dominant force of nature, that is depicted as far more powerful than the ephemeral characters that try to make a living on earth.

I found it as an odd to nature, to specifically the Icelandic harsh but majestic natural landscape and to the way people used to respect this. It is a great movie in many ways.

However, it's plot is slow-moving, the scenes are extremely long, do not expect to be entertained as it is the complete opposite of a fast-action, Hollywood-style movie. It is often rather boring and there is the real danger that the 2 hours and 23 minutes to pass rather slow to you as it did to me. I has the impression that the movie could have been just as deep and beautiful lasting only say 1 hours and 45 minutes.
