A small Eskimo boy comes drifting on an iceberg to a superstitious settlement in northern Iceland and is believed, by his strange looks, to be an emissary of the devil and the cause of the hardship brought on by a severe winter. When the boy makes friends with the priest's son, he proves to be a blessing rather than a curse and the villagers are forced to reconsider their beliefs and prejudices. (Verleiher-Text)

Sometimes I feel that the most powerful message can be find in the simplest of premises. Ikingut is a stellar example of a nice family film from Iceland. I think it might be the best Icelandic family film, and guess how many of those there are. And it is all based on the simplest premise ever, which is the fear of the unknown. The main character is a poor Eskimo boy struggling to navigate the new world, and he’s as unhappy about it as the inhabitants of Iceland. I enjoyed it. Family movies with a message are the best. The kids get them while the adults enjoy themselves. Especially thanks to the snowbound sceneries of Iceland, they are simply priceless.
