This impressive Norwegian-Slovak international co-production offers a powerful story of two brothers bound by the world of professional boxing yet divided by their own flawed decisions. The film follows the life story of Magne Havnaa, Norway\u2019s first world boxing champion, and his brother Erling, who accompanied him on the road to success as a trainer but later became involved in the biggest bank robbery in Norway\u2019s history.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"IFF AF 25 | B\u00e5rd Breien\" width=\"1220\" height=\"686\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SU24oz4-E3Q?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Team Havnaa<\/strong> was developed over several years and combines a sports drama with a psychological portrait of brotherhood, fame and moral decline. A significant part of the shoot consisted of boxing scenes staged with hundreds of extras and a focus on choreographic precision. <em>\u201cWe shot partly in Norway and partly in Slovakia. The hardest thing to realise was the boxing itself, which is essentially choreography. We had 400 extras in the stands. If we hadn\u2019t been perfectly prepared for these scenes, it would have ended terribly, but I have to say it turned out great,\u201d<\/em> says director B\u00e5rd Breien.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the film was shot in Slovakia, mainly in Bratislava, which in the film represents various European locations including Copenhagen. Several Slovak film professionals joined the creative team, such as production designer Oto H\u00e4usler, composer Michal Novinski and musician Jonat\u00e1n Pastir\u010d\u00e1k (Pjoni). The Slovak producer of the film is Zuzana Mistr\u00edkov\u00e1.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cFilmmaking today is a very international affair. I think that almost anywhere in our part of the world, films are made in the same way. In Slovakia there are more people on set, the crews tend to be bigger, but otherwise you feel you\u2019re working with the same people, whether they\u2019re Slovaks or Norwegians. My experience of shooting in Bratislava was great. I think we also share something in our view of the world. What I remember most from Slovakia is above all the warmth of the people and their determination to make a great film,\u201d<\/em> the director recalls.<\/p>\n<p>Magne Havnaa entered history as Norway\u2019s first professional world boxing champion at light-heavyweight when he defeated American Richard Pultz in 1990. His brother Erling, himself a successful kick-boxer, gave up his own sporting goals to support his younger sibling, yet the tragic consequences of his actions largely overshadowed the brothers\u2019 sporting success.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><b>The 31st IFF ART FILM is made possible thanks to the support of:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Organizer:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> ART FILM FEST s.r.o.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Co-organizers:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Mesto Ko\u0161ice \u00b7 K13 \u2013 Ko\u0161ick\u00e9 kult\u00farne centr\u00e1 \u00b7 Visit Ko\u0161ice \u00b7 ART FILM FEST, n.o. \u00b7 LGM, s.r.o. \u00b7 FORLIVE<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Financial support:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Audiovizu\u00e1lny fond \u00b7 Nad\u00e1cia SPP<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Co-financed by:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Ko\u0161ick\u00fd samospr\u00e1vny kraj through the Terra Incognita programme<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Main Partners<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: n\u00e1rodn\u00e1 lot\u00e9riov\u00e1 spolo\u010dnos\u0165 TIPOS \u00b7 Slovensk\u00e1 elektriza\u010dn\u00e1 prenosov\u00e1 s\u00fastava, a.s. \u00b7 CODES Brand House<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Main Media Partners: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TV JOJ \u00b7 Pravda \u00b7 Eurotelev\u00edzia<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Automotive Partner: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moris Slovakia<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Advertising Partners: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Best Press \u00b7 U.
