See the films the platforms disagree about most →Two small-town Icelandic musicians, Lars and Sigrit, dream of representing their country at the Eurovision Song Contest. When a bizarre twist of fate gives them the chance, they are thrust into the extravagant, cutthroat world of international pop music. Their earnest folk-pop act is wildly out of place amidst the glitter and spectacle. They must navigate this new world while exploring the true nature of their lifelong partnership.
