Directed by Anders Thomas Jensen and featuring a superb central performance from Mads Mikkelsen, The Last Viking is a wildly entertaining tale of brotherhood, memory and second chances.
Newly released from a lengthy prison sentence, Anker sets out to recover the proceeds of a long-forgotten bank robbery. There is just one problem: only his brother Manfred knows where the loot is buried, and years of mental illness have left him unable to recall its location.
What follows is an unpredictable rollercoaster that veers between absurd comedy, touching family drama and moments of genuine heartbreak.
