Ikoniske Inferno Metal Festival startet i 2001 – og er den lengst levende metal-festivalen i Norge – og en av de viktigste ekstremmetallfestivalene i verden. Det er en sterk posisjonen og festivalen fortsetter å fronte norsk metal og ta inn band fra hele verden til Norge. Inferno Metal Festival arrangeres fire dager på Rockefellers to scener; Rockefeller og John Dee – samt mange mindre klubber rundt i Oslo. Festivalen finner sted i påsken når det ikke skjer så mye annet i Oslo. Festivalen er vanligvis utsolgt og mer enn femti prosent av publikummet er fra utlandet. Billettsalget går til hele verden, inkludert Kina, Australia, Chile, Japan, Taiwan, Canada, USA, Columbia, Argentina og mange flere.

Om filmen:

Når en bygd i Sognefjorden rammes av mystiske hendelser, blir marinbiologen Johanne Berge motvillig sendt til bygda for å undersøke. Rare naturfenomener, merkelige lyder fra dypet, og en tragisk ulykke vekker mistanke om noe farlig som truer fjorden. Mens Johanne kjemper mot både miljøødeleggelser og sin egen fortid, må hun avsløre sannheten før dypets skrekk tar over.

The metal band Vreid has written the official song for Kraken. The film will be shown in collaboration with Inferno Metal Festival 2026, which takes place April 2-5.

The iconic Inferno Metal Festival started in 2001 – and is the longest-running metal festival in Norway – and one of the most important extreme metal festivals in the world. It is a strong position and the festival will continue to promote Norwegian metal and bring bands from all over the world to Norway. The Inferno Metal Festival takes place for four days on Rockefeller’s two stages; Rockefeller and John Dee – as well as many smaller clubs around Oslo. The festival takes place during Easter when there isn’t much else happening in Oslo. The festival is usually sold out and more than fifty percent of the audience is from abroad. Ticket sales go to the whole world, including China, Australia, Chile, Japan, Taiwan, Canada, the USA, Colombia, Argentina, and many more.

About the film:

When a whistleblower exposes unnatural behaviour and mass deaths in wild salmon, marine biologist Johanne is dispatched to Norway’s deepest fjord. Her mission is to investigate possible negative effects of sonic lice treatment at a local salmon farm. But what starts as a routine assignment in familiar territory quickly develops into something far more serious when two young boys on a water scooter meet a brutal, inexplicable death, followed by more maimed bodies. It turns out that the sonic technology Johanne is investigating doesn't just affect salmon lice; it has also awakened the mythical Kraken, an ancient multi-armed monster ready to crush and devour anything that moves or dares to make a sound.
