Glenn-Tore has a problem. He has just been dumped by his girlfriend and he is feeling as under the weather as he ever has. But this small-town mechanic and car enthusiast is known everywhere as a confident, easy-going guy who is never upset by anything. His group of friends who worship cars, tuning and fast-driving will not even let him be alone and feel bad. The excellently narrated Norwegian teen series set in an ordinary community sharing a specific hobby is one of the most acclaimed contemporary Nordic series. Norwegians have been telling globally watched stories about the lives of young people for the past decade, and it is Rod Knock that has taken on the proportions of a pop culture phenomenon. At the same time it sticks exclusively to tried-and-tested themes – love, friendship, adventure, loss and rebuilding.
