The Brothers

Two elderly brothers, Harald and Mathias Ramen, live together in a small, rural Norweigan hamlet and have allowed Elin Hoyland to document their lives. The result is a fascinating and warmly human study of a way of life that has almost entirely disappeared. The brothers have always lived on the farm where they were born, rarely spending even just a night elsewhere. Without a TV and only local radio and the newspaper as access to the outside world, they lead the life of an age gone by.
