Made by Norway

Wonderfully atmospheric and poetic commercial for the Nowegian company Aker, meant as "a tribute to people working in industry today - people who work hard and never give up." The poem used is Ivar Aasen's "Nordmannen". Directed by Norwegian director Erik Poppe, with lovely music by Swedish composer Johan Söderqvist ("Let the Right One In").
