Plot
The movie is set in the Åkneset mountain, in the Norwegian fjord Geiranger, where a huge-rocks landslide took place 58 years ago. That caused an important damage, because the fall of the huge rocks in a narrow sea entry caused a gigantic 85-metres-high wave. This tsunami, which devastates everything behind, caused the death of 40 inhabitants of the nearest village. The main character of this Norwegian film is a biologist who is one of those caught in the middle of the accident who only has ten minutes to scape from this natural disaster in order to save himself and the life of his family. Directed by Roar Uthaug and played by Kristoffer Joner, Ane Dahl Torp, Jonas Hoff Oftebro, Fridtjov Saheim, this movie was released in some international film festivals, like the Toronto International Film Festival.

Trivia
Sold over 141.000 tickets in Norway on the first weekend of release, the most successful movie of the year 2015 there and the 3rd best result ever for a Norwegian film.
The film's basic premise is not fictional. The mountain is in constant motion and will fall, sooner or later. Director Roar Uthaug: "This will actually happen there one day. There is this crack in the mountainside out in the fjord, and it keeps expanding each year and at some point it will cause a huge rockslide into the fjord and they will have 10 minutes before the wave reaches Geiranger. So we wanted to stay true to the facts - to what geologists think will be the facts one day."
