Presented in collaboration with Nordic Voices.
To her friends, Halla (Halldóra Geirharõsdóttir) leads a quiet and routine life. But her happy and upbeat exterior hides a secret double life as a committed environmental activist. Known to others only by her alias 'The Woman of the Mountain', she secretly wages a one-woman-war on the local aluminium industry to protect the stunning highland landscape that is under threat.
​
Funny, moving and utterly unique, Woman at War follows Halla as she juggles the adoption of a beautiful little girl whilst planning her final act of industrial sabotage.
