On this journey we take you into the community of Icelandic singing culture and follow a local on to a Choir rehearsal. Did you know that there are over 100 Choir's in Iceland!? On this second Christmas Special episode, we take a look into the Ásatrú religious society and what the meaning of Christmas is to them. A short documentary about the 13 Icelandic Yule lads. The Stained Glass Windows had been salvaged from Coventry’s Medieval Cathedral before it was bombed out by the German Luftwaffe. But in 1942 they simply disappeared, stolen from the storage in Hampton Lucy. Much later, it is discovered that many of the stained glass windows had found their way to Iceland. How did this happen? The Icelandic scholar Sveinn Bergsveinsson, a Communist in the 1930s, was trapped in Berlin by the outbreak of World War II and forced to work for the Nazi propaganda machine. Returning to Iceland, he found himself branded by both sides of the cold war political divide and barred from academic work. In desperation, he emigrated to East-Germany where he became a respected professor The film has a strong and dramatic story, well known in Iceland in its outlines but practically unknown elsewhere. It is full of surprise elements. At the same time, its many of its traits are familiar in the present – fear and joy, loneliness and solidarity, disaster and coping with disaster, the clash of cultures. It has relevance today and striking analogies with with recents developments. Tv doc about one of the biggest eruption in Iceland that lasted for seven months.

Documentary about the independence struggle of the Baltic countries. Traffic propaganda for The Icelandic Automobile Association
