Back to the roots!

"Back to Our roots" is a Project where we want to explore the past of Our countries.
Here in Norway, the vikings are a big part of Our lives. It has also inspired a lot of tales, books, films and TV-shows, and some of the stories are still popular today.
In Our town, the viking history is very important. The founder of Our city, Olav the sacred, was a viking, and a lot of Our history as a region was defined during the viking period.

We would like to explore Our past, and compare it to some historical period that has been important for Our partner country! And then be able to compare both where we came from and where we are today.

By using filmmaking, photography, theater and writing, we would like to make a Project where we invite you to visit us in Our viking-park in Our hometown and learn about the viking history of Norway. We will discuss and even try how it`s like living as a viking, and what sort of impact this has had on Norwegian history!

We would also like to visit you, to learn about Your countrys past, and to be able to experience some old culture from you.

Based on these two Exchanges, we would like to end up With a short film/posters/interviews/a play or some sort of Product that combines the two, compares them and also shows how this impacts the daily lives in Our countries today.
