LOBSTER SOUP screens at Globe Cinema November 3 and online November 4 - 5


Every morning Krilli prepares the many ingredients of Bryggjan's lobster soup, a tiny café in a small town in Iceland. Alli, Krilli's brother, sits with the old fishermen, the last boxer of Iceland and a writer, who find, every day, a new solution for all the problems of the world.

People from abroad come to Iceland to see the volcanoes, the ice and the genesis of the Earth. And now the tourists and the lava field seem to push the whole town more and more towards the sea. The Bryggjan Café holds the port, clinging to the ground. It serves as a shelter on the last 3,000 square meters of buildable ground in the harbour for the locals of the town.
