Synopsis:

It's 1984 and Zano, a Greek vampire, goes to Athens at the invitation of his friend Jimmy, the gravedigger. Waiting for Jimmy to show, Zano dances the night away at Disco Zardoz. Soon he's wandering the dark streets of Athens with his new friends Alice, a prostitute, and Peter, a Norwegian drug dealer. Just when he thinks he can't sink any lower, Alice delivers him underground to Mount Mathousalas, where he meets an ancient man who may or may not be Adolf Hitler, but who desperately wants eternal life. In this feature debut, Greek commercial director and composer Yiannis Veslemes (a.k.a. Felizol) takes his audience for a dark ride. Shot in vintage '80s style with handmade sets and an electronic score, Norway is part whimsy, part poetry, and a large part existential despair. Fans of Terry Gilliam may find a new creative force to fall in love with.

Photophobic Zano, arrives in the big city for the very first time. The year is 1984 and Athens beckons. A vampire and a fine dancer, Zano quickly gets devoured by the dark underbelly of the capital city. All he really wants is a "warm" girl. Strung out and down and out, he ends up at disco Zardoz, a hive of scum and villainy, where he meets Alice, a prostitute and Peter, a Norwegian drug dealer. Lured into their shady shenanigans, the three of them will traverse mountains and descend into the core of the earth, all the way to the Kingdom of Mathousalas. Norway puts on shiny new shoes, dances the night away with colourful scoundrels and only bites when absolutely necessary.
