synopsis

The world of the reclusive and enigmatic film director Martin MacAnally is brought to light in this new film from Duncan Ganley.

A Researcher travels to Iceland to investigate a lingering mystery - What really happenned during the shooting of MacAnally's much hyped, but still unreleased, movie 'Keflavík'? Why has it never been seen?

From initial clues found at the Archives of Millennium Panic Pictures, the Researcher journeys through the Icelandic landscape in search of what he hopes will be the answer to one of cinema's forgotten conundrums.

However, from the cosmopolitan nightlife of Reykjavík, to the isolated glaciers and dramatic waterfalls of Iceland, all is perhaps not what it appears. The Researcher's investigation points to a possible conspiracy, but is it just a trick of the midnight sun, his lack of sleep or is he just getting too close to his subject?

But as a crisis looms in the North Atlantic,
will he find the answers he seeks,
before the Apocalypse?
