Pioneer

In the early 1980s, the Norwegian oil boom is just starting, and enormous deposits have turned up in the North Sea. Petter (Aksel Hennie), a professional diver with the discipline to reach the bottom of the Norwegian Sea, takes on the most dangerous job on offer, a pipeline run from 500 meters down. Erik Skjoldbjærg keeps the film tightly wound, and Petter's world narrows as he loses track of who is giving the orders.
