Everytime I here of Greenland I only think of the country been a vast barren area with a very small population, but credit due to them. The trailer below and the movie does look like it was beautifully shot and will do some justic to the country as well possibly on tourist front. The movie was released in November in Greenland but 23rd January it will get a limited release in USA, as for UK & Ireland I dont really know
