Godland (Janus Contemporaries)

In the late 19th century, Danish priest Lucas (Elliott Crosset Hove) was tasked with sojourning to provincial Iceland and establishing a Lutheran church there. His hostile interactions with hired guide Ragnar (Ingvar Eggert Sigurðsson) would add to an already grueling journey and shattering events upon reaching their destination.
