The film was scored by Kjartan Sveinsson, a keyboardist for the band Sigur Rós.
His daughter Lilja has decided that her father, the farmer Hrafn, and his wife Gróa, should move into a home for the elderly.
Both Lilja and the delivery man Jón have been led to believe that Hrafn has been working to close up his remote farmhouse.
is that Gróa has not been taking a nap the past two days; she has died, and Hrafn has been busy preparing a grave for them both.
By the time his daughter and family pull up to the farmhouse, Hrafn has laid himself at the bottom of the pit he has dug, next to the coffin he has built for his wife, and pulled the rope which causes a load of dirt to fall, burying him alive.
