The intangible omnipresent of the Icelandic Huldufólk (hidden ones) is explored in this short filmic piece.  

 

The Huldufólk occupy a place of elusive but extant threat, linking the 12th to 15th Century Icelandic Sagas to the country’s formidable landscape and its contemporary usage. ‘Hindrun: threshold’ conceptually explores this idea of an otherworldly life source being embedded within a temporal landscape and offers a contemplative prose narrative on the uncanny in relation to science and enchantment.
