Looking forward to spending a vacation on the small Swedish island of Svälta, the Smith family is unsettled by the unfriendly mainlanders who advise them to avoid the island at all costs, especially during the Karantan festival. But the four-member family is in deep need of some time away and stubbornly decides to take the ferry anyway.
On the island, the locals are rather rude and unwelcoming, and their behaviour suggests that some big event is about to happen. Is it a cult? Is there a sacrifice in the works? Seemingly unbothered by so much discourtesy and drama, the family enjoys a swim in the sea, treks in the woods, and, oh, the silent isolation… which turns out to be a pretty perfect situation for the Smiths, who have special plans of their own.
Get Away is financed by IPR.VC, Creativity Capital, XYZ Films, Business Tampere and Business Finland, and produced by XYZ Films, Wayward Entertainment, and Resolute Films. Universal Pictures is distributing the film worldwide (excl. UK, USA, Canada, Indonesia and the Middle East). Director Steffen Haars is managed by Peter Van Steemburg of XYZ Films. Nick Frost is represented by Independent Talent Group and Think Tank Management.
Nick Spicer, Aram Tertzakian, and Maxime Cottray of XYZ Films produced alongside John Hegeman of Wayward Entertainment, Lee Kim of Resolute Films and Frost. The co-producer is Richard Kondal for Big Safari, with executive producers Vince Totino of Wayward Entertainment, Patrick Fischer of Creativity Capital, Nate Bolotin and Pip Ngo of XYZ Films, alongside Julia Stuart and Laura Grange of Sky Original Film.
