Tongue Cutters

Presented by Scandinavian Cultural Center at Scandinavian Cultural Center

Hidden between a row of fishermen gutting fish, standing on a floor full of blood and intestines, we find nine-year-old Tobias in front of a big box filled with cod heads. With an almost frightening pace, he cuts the tongues from the heads, and puts them on a big nail.

The girls are also eager to attend the World Championship of cod tongue cutting, where the child cutting the most tongues in two minutes becomes the new World Champion.

“A disarmingly charming doc about some of Norway’s surprisingly independent youth.” — WF
