Stockholm Film Festival

The Norwegian producers of Academy Award nominated feelgood flick Elling are back, this time with what may very well be the first feature film ever made about a worm farmer. And it is as crazy as it sounds,
Jonny (convincingly played by Aksel Henniel) has great plans for his beloved worm farm, and dreams of it making him a wealthy man, But nothing seems to go his way, He
is tangled in a precarious situation with two childhood friends - he is having an affair with Tuva, who is married
to his best friend Magnus. When Jonny tells Tuva he
wants a more serious relationship, everything starts going wrong - someone in the little village is not happy about their
love affair, The anonymous enemy attacks Jonny and the police do not bother to investigate, When the worm farm gets sabotaged, Jonny reaches the end of his tether. He takes matters into his own hands,
Jonny Vang is an amusing drama about friendship, infidelity and the complexities of life, The fantastic soundtrack
with American-Mexican group Calexico adds an extra depth to the film, as does the excellent supporting cast and the grand Norwegian mountain surroundings, Director Jens Lien participated in the Stockholm International Film Festival Short Film Competition section with Natural Glasses in 2001.
