That's it.

Good girl.

Good boy.

My dear Lukka. Eat some more.

Yes. Come along.

Hello, there.

That's it.

There you go.

You'll do just fine.

In this nation,
none has played a larger role

in our survival through ice and fire.

Resistant and tough,
whatever happens,

mankind's saviour and friend
for a thousand years,

all year round, in joy and disharmony,

sheep are woven into
our farmers' work and being.

Bright was the outlook
when our sheep felt fine.

Black were the nights
when the flock was in decline.

Now it's time to award the prizes
for the three best,

and Katrin the vet is going to do that.

Third prize goes to Finnur Gudjonsson
and his ram Heysi.

Heysi comes from Kveikur
and Goa from Svínafell.

He got 84 points.

Second place goes
to Gudmundur Bodvarsson

with his ram Garpur.

Garpur is item the famous Bolstadur breed,
from Godi and Birta.

He got 86 points.

I must point out
that it was a very close call

between the two top rams.

The result was determined
by the thickness of the back muscle.

The rams are both
from the same renowned stock,

and this year's winner is...

Kristinn Bodvarsson and his ram Sproti.

Sproti comes from Loki
and Sturla from Bolstad.

He got 86.5 points.

- Congratulations, my dear Kiddi.
- Yes. Thank you so much.

- Congratulations!
- Congratulations, dear Gummi.

Well done.

- A toast to the Bolstadar brothers!
- Yes.

No, thank you.

It was really close.
Just a difference in one bit of muscle.

- You'll take it next year, Gummi.
- Yes, you will.

Good luck with everything.

Come here.

Let me see your back muscle.

What? Something wrong?

Good boy. Come along.

Easy, now. Calm down.

Calm down, Garpur.

You did well, my dear Sproti.

That's it. That's my boy.
Let me see you.

Hello.
- Hello, Gudmundur.

- Hello, Gummi.
- Hello, dear Hildur.

- How are you?
- All good.

- Can I have a word with you?
- Yes, yes.

I'm going to have a word with Gummi.

Is something wrong?

I'm afraid something is wrong
with Kiddi's sheep.

Oh? What could it be?

I'm afraid it might be scrapie.

Scrapie? It could hardly be...

- That ram of his, the one that won.
- Yes.

I examined him yesterday.

He has all the symptoms.

My dear Gummi, don't you think
Katrin would have noticed

if the prize ram had scrapie?

Do you want me to talk to Kiddi?

- Get someone to examine the ram?
- Would you do that?

You haven't spoken to each other
in 40 years.

Why begin now?

If it turns out to be scrapie,
wouldn't it be likely

that both of our herds
would have to be slaughtered?

I don't believe it's scrapie.

We've never had any cases of scrapie.

How could it have been brought here?

Aren't you just still recovering
from the ram competition?

Take that, you bastard!

You won't get away with this!
Fucking ram murderer!

He doesn't have fucking scrapie.

You're just making it up.

You're just a sore loser!

Gummi?

Gummi, can you hear me?

What happened?

There was a shooting practice yesterday.

I heard that Kiddi's ram
was taken for examination?

Do you think he could have scrapie?

You'll have to ask him about that.

I just spoke to him.

He said it's all coming from you.

Yes? He said that, did he?

I'm no expert on scrapie, Grímur.

But when I examined
the ram yesterday,

that was the first thing
that came to mind.

Damn it.

If we have scrapie in the valley,
we're in deep shit.

You lot over on the east side
have no need to worry

if scrapie shows up here.

We borrowed him this winter.

The creature sired half our lambs.

Invoice
Two windows

To Kiddi.

What's up, my friend?

What do you have there?

Hi, Gudmundur.

I have bad news.

Your brother's sheep
are infected with scrapie.

We are investigating the nearest farms.

May we look in your sheep shed?

Yes.

A case of scrapie has been found
on the Bolstad farm in Bardardalur.

This is the first occurrence
of the disease in this valley.

According to Katrin Nielsen,
the district vet,

the scrapie was diagnosed
in an adult ram,

and tests are being carried out
to determine

whether it's present
on neighbouring farms.

No decision has been made
concerning a slaughter.

It is believed that scrapie
came to Iceland

with British sheep
at the end of the 19th century,

and has not yet been
entirely eliminated here.

It is an infectious disease that attacks
the brains and spinal cords of sheep,

and is incurable.

Dear friends.

Results of the tests just arrived.

Scrapie was found on two other farms,

at Haugi and Seljatunga.

It has therefore been decided

that all the sheep in the valley
must be slaughtered.

Is this the final decision?

They say that there's been
enough contact between them,

and in order to eliminate the disease,

they've got to take the entire valley.

Why not just take us, too?

Finish the job!

We need to trust the vets.

They don't know anything.

University educated fools
from down south.

- What would you do, Kiddi?
- I want us to put a stop to this nonsense!

- How are we supposed to do that?
- We just refuse to slaughter our sheep.

How do you think it will be
to live here with no sheep?

- Have you thought about that?
- It's just for two years.

And then what?

Import some hormone-sheep
from the Westfjords?

I agree with Kiddi. We can't just say
yes and amen to these veterinarians.

They're not holy.

I trust Katrin to make the right decision
in this matter.

As I see it, it's a question
of whether we want to cut down now,

or to have the scrapie
hanging over us in the coming years.

Just do what you want, Finnur.
I'll have nothing to do with it.

It's very important now
that we stand together.

This is a great shock to all of us,

and it's understandable
that people are wounded.

But the decision has been taken,

and it will not be changed.

LINE OF DEFENCE
Sheep diseases - contagious!

Yes, Gudmundur.

Yes. Yes, hello, Katrin.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes, that's true.

Yes, that's life.

Yes... No, I want to bury them here.

They were raised here,
and I want them to rest here.

Yes. No. I'm certain about that.

Yes. Yes, goodbye.

My dear girl.

Let me go, you bastards!

Leave my sheep alone!

Why did you do this, Gummi?

I wanted to kill my sheep myself.

- Is this all of them?
- Yes.

147 sheep.

Very well. Clean this up.

You've got to follow the rules, Gummi.

You shouldn't have slaughtered them
yourself.

If we're to eradicate this disease,
you've got to follow the rules.

We pay for every sheep
that's slaughtered,

and you're also paid so-called
"product loss compensation",

according to average production
for the past three years.

Payments are distributed
over a two-year period,

then you can apply to acquire new sheep.

The vets will assist you
in cleaning out your buildings.

Any questions?

No. I don't think so.

Have you thought about the future?

Will you keep on farming?

Where do I sign?

There, at the bottom.

- Yes.
- Thank you.

Listen...

Do you think you can help me
get in touch with Kristinn?

He lives next door.

Yes, I know.
But he hasn't wanted to talk to us.

Could you talk to him?

You're brothers, right?

Kiddi and I don't speak to each other.

You need to clean everything.

The shit, the hay, everything on the floor.

- Also the wood.
- And the pens?

Yes, those also. All wood.

This pitchfork here.
Everything that you've used in here.

Tools, clothing, everything.

You need to destroy all of it.
It's best to burn it.

You also need to clean out the barn
and destroy all the hay.

And absolutely don't sell it.

Scrapie can be transmitted by hay mites.

- Do I need to destroy all the hay?
- Yes.

Well, Gummi?

What do you say now?

Do you know what you've done?

You've wiped out the Bolstadar stock.

This is going to be a hell of a winter!

No sheep. Just the two of us.

That's what you wanted!

Isn't that what you wanted?

That's my girls.

Here you go.

Here you go, Garpur.
That's my man.

Good boy.

Have some.

Damn it.

Go away. Go!

- Hi, there.
- Hi.

- Where did you get it?
- It's from Bogi, in the next valley.

He has more if you need it.

Got some coffee?

No, I don't have any coffee.

Nothing stronger?

No, I'm sorry, Grímur.
I have nothing to offer.

- Did you clean already?
- Yes.

It's fucking boring.

- Has Kiddi started?
- No.

Well, Garpur.

It's your big moment.

Yes. Well done.

That's the spirit.

Yes, go on, handsome.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah! You can do it!

Help!

Help!

You have to help me. I think he's dying.

Help me!

Pull there.

That's it.

- Got it?
- I got it.

- The sweater as well?
- Yes.

That's it.

I came close to driving right past him.

He was lying in a ditch just down there.

- Is this man from here?
- Yes.

Has this happened before?

Yes, but it's been a while.

He probably would have frozen to death
if I hadn't found him.

Thanks.

- Do you live together?
- No, he lives next door.

We are brothers.

OK. Have you been living here long?

I was born and raised here,
grew up where Kiddi lives now.

- His name is Kiddi?
- Yes.

And what, no women?

No. There aren't many around.

- You haven't had housekeepers?
- No. Not me, at least.

Kiddi had some.
They all ran away from him.

I'm working for the Veterinary Authority.
Disinfecting sheep sheds.

- Weren't your sheep slaughtered?
- Yes.

Must have been hard.

Yes.

What was that?

That... just my cats playing around.

- OK. Do you have many cats?
- Yes, lots. Merry Christmas, my friend.

Merry Christmas.

- My greetings to your brother.
- I'll pass that on.

Yes. Well, goodbye.

What do you say?
Have you finished cleaning?

- Yes.
- Yes.

How about you?

No. We decided to quit.

We're going bankrupt anyway.

So we're just going
to take the opportunity and leave.

- Where will you go?
- We haven't decided.

We can't see living here
two more years

with no sheep and a pile of loans.

Nor is it certain
the scrapie is going anywhere.

It doesn't need to come up again, Villi.

Have you talked to the farmers
in Svarfaðardalur?

They've had to slaughter
their sheep three times!

We're still thinking things over.

The kids have moved out,

and when the sheep are gone,
there won't be much left for us here.

Just to tell it like it is.

It takes an effort to come here
at this time of the year.

Yes, you could say that.

Yes.

It's this matter with your brother.

As you know,
he hasn't been very cooperative.

It's starting to cause us
considerable concern.

He's the only one who hasn't cleaned.

Unfortunately,
we can't bring in new sheep

until all sheep sheds
have been disinfected.

There is more to it.

I checked the papers.

Kristinn doesn't own his land?

It's all in your name.

- Yes.
- What's the reason?

My father didn't want Kiddi to take over.

I promised my mother before she died

that Kiddi would get
to stay at the old farm.

You know what that means?

You're responsible for your brother.

He lives on your land,

and if he doesn't follow the rules,
it's you that...

That what?

If it comes to a legal fight,
you'll be the one that's sued.

It would be best
if you two could settle things.

To Kiddi.

So, so, so.

Gummi!

Gummi, are you there, you bastard?

Gummi, what's this bullshit
you've been writing?

Who the fuck do you think you are?

Do you think you're my boss?

It's not up to you to tell me what to do!

- I'll just do what suits me best.
- Shut the fuck up, you fucking wanker.

Are you hungry, my friend?

Here you go.

Thank you, and take care.

Damn it!

Here we go.

I know what you have in the basement.

Somi. Somi, my friend.

What have you got there?

Thanks for the loan.

Gummi.

How many are there?

Is there a ram?

What does it matter to you?

Well, these are the only sheep left
of the Bolstadur stock.

- It matters to me.
- Fucking bullshit.

Those are my sheep.
Don't you dare come near them!

Yes, yes. Fantastic!

Let me see.

Yes, yes, yes.

We'll get two lambs here. Yes, yes.

Let me see. Yes, yes.

This is good.

Well, my dear Garpur.

It's over for now.

Fantastic!

100 per cent successful performance.

Can I use your bathroom?

Yes, yes, go ahead.

Shit!

Thanks.

Let's go. On your feet!

Kiddi. You have to help me.

They're coming.

Let's take them inside.

Get in!

- There are no sheep here.
- They were here just before.

I don't believe this, Gummi!

What are you thinking?

Where are the sheep?

Gummi.

Where are the sheep?

Unbelievable! We have to look.

- We have to look for them.
- They were here before.

Maybe they're up on the mountain?

Shouldn't we call for help?

Yes. I guess.

Station, Beggi here.

We can't find them.
Let's get some assistance.

Beggi here. I found the sheep.

Just right outside.

Help me.

- What should we do with the sheep?
- We take them to the mountains.

- Mountains?
- Yes. Hvannalindir.

- It's way up on the highland!
- If we manage, they'll survive the winter.

Come on. Let's hurry.

This doesn't look good.

We have to carry on.

Damn it!

Where are the sheep?

Gummi!

Gummi!

Garpur!

Gummi!

Gummi, can you hear me?

It's going to be just fine,
my dear Gummi.
