Festivalen (2020)

It's the warmest May on record, and in the valley people are gathering around the cafes and taverns. Hotdogs are fried, topics discussed. The caravan park is filled to the brim with motor-homes, the hillside is filled to the brim with trees. And far up in the mountains, near the end of the municipality: two sherpas, carving out the new hiking trail. Kristine has come home. She is roaming the valley, waiting for tomorrow. Somewhere the mayor must be preparing his National Day speech.
