Synopsis: The title of Gústav Geir Bollason’s first essay in feature-length filmmaking is bewitchingly matter of fact: Mannvirki means structure or building – it’s composed of two parts, where the first means person, and the second fortress. And this is exactly what Mannvirki is about. It shows people in a once-sturdy, now derelict building that could have been anything from a scientific research station to some army structure.

Critics' reviews

"'Mannvirki' contemplative yet deep film, one that allows an audience the space and time to think over what they are seeing, perhaps considering what they might find and contribute in such a space"
