Vegurinn til Vanlíðunnar (The Descent into Discomfort)

Filmmaker: Sam Walker
Running Time: 15 minutes

A 10-day, 209-mile crossing of Iceland from north to south. A journey that has profound physical and emotional challenges as its participants ‘descend into discomfort’.

Crossing landscapes that are as wild as they are beautiful – from the barren moonscape area known as “Exploding Sands” to intensely green volcanic valleys and lava fields. Escaping the pressures of work, social media, and home life to find freedom in the wide open silence of Iceland’s interior.
