The Hero’s Journey To The Third Pole (2020) aka Þriðji póllinn

Halló!

The next leg of Rob and Ellie's journey takes them away from Iceland to the exotic mountain jungles of Nepal!

Kvikmyndapod is leaving the country of Iceland behind for the first time, for 'The Hero's Journey to the Third Pole' in which Andri Snær Magnason and Anní Ólafsdóttir artfully document the efforts of Anna Tara Edwards and musician Högni to put on a concert to raise awareness of bipolar disorder, and mental illness more generally, in Nepal.

Featuring elephants, mountains, unbelievable stories, and insight into the experiences of those living with bipolar disorder, this is a fascinating documentary with some great music!
