*Om filmen*
Ved kanten af verden i den smukke natur på den islandske østkyst er to tvillingedrenge gået i gang med at grave et kæmpe hul. Da hullet er dybt nok, stikker de et langt stykke tømmer ned i hullet og fylder det op igen. Nu står tømmeret som en strunk pæl midt i det hele. Deres storesøster støder til dem og sammen bygger de en ridderskikkelse, som de surrer fast til pælen. Perfekt.
Nu har de et mål de kan skyde pile efter, selvom deres far egentlig har sagt, at de ikke må skyde med bue og pil, når han ikke er hjemme. Men det skider de på, for han er alligevel aldrig hjemme, og nu skal ridderen, som storesøsteren har døbt Jeanne d’Arc – for kvinder kan også være riddere – gennembores af pile.
Kameraet står bomstille gennem hele ’Jeanne d’Arc’ og at det ikke bliver det mindste kedeligt, må tilskrives de tre børn foran kameraet og selvfølgelig deres far – den islandske filmskaber Hlynur Pálmason. Et smukt og meget morsomt portræt af tidens gang, barneleg og det evigt omskiftelig islandske klima.

*About the Film*
On the edge of the world, in the beautiful countryside on the east coast of Iceland, two twin boys have started digging a huge hole. When the hole is deep enough, they stick a long piece of timber into it and fill it up again. Now the timber stands like a stump in the middle of it all. Their big sister joins them and together they build a knight figure, which they tie to the stump. Perfect.
Now they have a target to shoot arrows at, even though their father has told them not to shoot bows and arrows when he is not at home. But they don’t care, because he is never home anyway, and now the knight, whom their big sister has named Joan of Arc – because women can be knights too – is to be pierced by arrows.
The camera remains motionless throughout Joan of Arc, and the fact that it never gets boring is thanks to the three children in front of the camera and, of course, their father: Icelandic filmmaker Hlynur Pálmason. A beautiful and very funny portrait of the passage of time, children’s games and the ever-changing Icelandic climate.
