International distribution company, Picture Tree Intl., has obtained the global sales rights for “The Badgers,” an upcoming family adventure movie directed by Paul M. Lundø (“The Veil of Twilight”). This Norwegian production is currently in post-production and is scheduled to hit Scandinavian theaters during the summer or autumn of 2025. The trailer for this film can be viewed here.
The touching and amusing tale revolves around Bernt, an 11-year-old orphan who aspires to achieve what his deceased father did as a renowned Scout. Upon moving in with his unconventional new foster mother, Gerdie, Bernt becomes part of a peculiar local Scout group. Determined to win the prestigious Golden Scout Trophy, which bears his father’s name, he sets his goals high.
In this heartwarming and funny adventure, 11-year-old orphan Bernt yearns to follow in his late father’s footsteps as a celebrated Scout. After moving in with his unusual new foster mother, Gerdie, he joins a peculiar local Scout troop and aims to claim the coveted Golden Scout Trophy, engraved with his father’s name.
Lastly:
Bernt, an 11-year-old orphan, dreams of emulating his deceased father as a celebrated Scout. After moving in with his eccentric foster mother, Gerdie, he joins a quirky local Scout group and sets his sights on winning the prized Golden Scout Trophy, which bears his father’s name.
But, discord arises when Gerdie assumes the role of co-leader with Gunnar, who is a firm traditionalist. Adventures filled with encounters with dangerous wildlife and unearthing hidden truths teach Bernt about the essence of integrity and the qualities needed to be a true hero.
Lundø expresses: ” ‘The Badgers‘ is my tribute to childhood, excitement, and the tales that molded us. It’s a movie designed for families to chuckle, ponder, find inspiration, and rekindle the enchantment of adventure in their very own neighborhoods.
The movie is created by David L. Leader, known for his work at 73 Eyes Productions (behind “Norsemen” and “Home for Christmas”), and receives backing from the Norwegian Film Institute, along with funding from regional film funds Zefyr and Filmkraft Rogaland.
I’m fortunate to be part of the ensemble for “The Badgers,” a group that features Øystein Martinsen, known for his role in “Norsemen” and “The Burning Sea”; Caroline Johansen; Nils Elias Olsen, recognized from “The Burning Sea”; and Kristoffer Joner, star of “Mission Impossible: Fallout.
In modern-day, quaint Norwegian countryside, this film skillfully blends nostalgic narratives with contemporary humor, ensuring a delightful viewing experience for all ages. This movie serves as the launchpad for a prospective series of films.
‘The Badgers’ is a heartwarming adventure that embodies childhood aspirations and the enduring struggle between age-old values and modern advancements,” stated Yuan Rothbauer-Sui, co-managing director of PTI. “We are excited to share this Norwegian treasure with the world, first at the European Film Market.
