Richard Hobert‘s drama movie The Birdcatcher‘s Son (Fågelfångarens son) will have its premiere April 5 in Sweden.

What‘s so special about the movie is that it was shot in the Faroe Islands last year – in Bøur & Gásadalur on the island of Vágar, as well as at Vágar airport, writes Faroese news website Portal.fo.

Set in 1820s Faroe Islands, the movie follows Esmar and his wife Johanna. The farmer Esmar’s lease will expire in the fall. If Esmar and Johanna have no son, the landholder Såmal will take his house. Their only hope is for another man to make Johanna pregnant, and so they choose a French captain as their friend in need.

The captain agrees to help. He leaves but comes back 9 years later.

It is still unclear when the movie will be released for the Faroese public to see.

The languages spoken in the movie are Swedish, Danish, French & Faroese.

See movie trailer above.
