About ‘The Northman’
Amleth is a young prince when his father is killed and his mother is kidnapped by his uncle Fjölnir. When a seeress tells him that it is Odin’s will that he seeks revenge, Amleth poses as a slave and boards a ship headed for the settlement where Fjölnir was last seen.
After meeting a Slavic woman bound for the same destination aboard the ship, Amleth lands to find his mother has married his uncle, and the two have produced a son. He learns of a magical sword that will help aid his quest for vengeance, and must also grapple with the growing feelings he has for the Slavic woman Olga.
Soon, Amleth’s quest for vengeance comes to a head. He decides he would rather be with Olga and abandon his mission, as Olga is pregnant with twins that Amleth fathered. But after receiving another vision, Amleth must decide whether or not he will meet Fjölnir at the Gates of Hel for the fiery trial that will certainly leave one of them dead.
