Hurstwic traveled to Iceland to shoot video and pictures on location for our upcoming DVD, The Final Battle of Grettir the Strong. We traveled to the island of Drangey, where Grettir and his brother Illugi lived the last few years of their life. We built a Viking-age turf house on the site, a short distance from the ruins of Grettir's actual house. And then, as the saga describes, Þorbjörn öngull and his men tore the house to pieces to get inside to kill Grettir and Illugi while the cameras rolled. A picture album of our adventure is here on the Hurstwic site, and a video showing how we built a Viking-age turf house for our film is here on YouTube.
