Nothing is quite as intriguing as the fascinating world of moviemaking. Most interesting are the stories of productions told in documentaries that capture the filmmaker's vision and dreams powered by what seems psychotic obsession to bring production to a wrap while overcoming huge obstacles at every turn. Keith Fulton and Louis Pepe's Lost In la Mancha brought us the failed attempt by Terry Gilliam to film "The Man Who Killed Don Quixote", Les Blank's "Burden of Dreams" about the chaotic production of Werner Herzog's epic 'Fitzcarraldo' deep in the Amazon jungle, and Fax Bahr and George Hickenlooper's Hearts of Darkness chronicled Francis Ford Coppola's "Apocalypse Now". All meeting with unbelievable catastrophes, disasters, and set backs threatening and sometimes shutting down production.

Then along comes the riveting documentary Wrath of Gods, by Jon Gustafsson that captures the captivating story of Canadian director Sturla Gunnarsson and the cast and crew of Beowulf & Grendel, starring Gerard Butler. Financial woes, unforgiving Icelandic storms, destroyed sets, leaky Viking ships, everything that could go wrong goes wrong. In Wrath of Gods Jon Gustafsson captures the unwavering spirit of do or die that perseveres in this hilariously intense behind the scenes look at the stressful and sometimes heart breaking coverage of filmmaking.

This compelling feature length documentary records the behind the scenes footage of Beowulf and Grendel set against the breath taking Icelandic backdrop complete with interviews from cast and crew as they relate their enthralling adventures of filmmaking where Norse Gods reign their wrath throughout pre and post production.

Wrath of Gods is for all film enthusiasts offering an intimate portrait of movie making with the trials and tribulations encountered, making it a must – see for aspiring filmmakers. Don't miss this in depth look at sacrifices made and obstacles overcome by determined filmmakers in the mountains of Iceland!
