Jónsmessunótt - Film Shoot

Jónsmessunótt - Film Shoot (from Listhús í Fjallabyggð)

Listhus artist, Magdalena Blom, welcomes everyone to - during this one faithful night -  celebrate Jónsmessunótt by rolling down the avalanche ramp here in Olafsfjördur. According to the folklore, rolling (naked) in the grass, blessed with the dew gathered after the brightest days of the year- there’s a spur of magic, giving health and luck to whoever rolls in it.

We will meet at midnight, the 23^rd of June by the avalanche ramp and Magdalena Blom, artist and filmmaker will direct and film the magical event as a part of her residency in Listhus.
