Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
This is an imaginative, simply-told adventure story set in the time of the Middle Ages, when Kuksja (Alexandr Rimoskin) a young warrior from a Balkan village is kidnapped by marauding Vikings and brought back to the land of the fjords to become a champion of his now-adopted clan's cause. Once a major battle with Dane Vikings has been won, Kuksja goes to live on the estate of an important chieftain and becomes friends with his son Harald and daughter Signy (Petronella Baker). Soon Signy and Kuksja are romantically inclined, but Kuksja still feels his primary duty is to get back to his real home. In the end, something will have to be compromised.
