Fjord
A devout Romanian Christian family newly settled in Norway is torn apart when Child Services removes their children after a teacher reports bruising and the father admits spanking. Fjord follows Romanian engineer Mihai Gheorghiu and his Norwegian wife Lisbet, a nursing-home nurse, as they move with their five children from Romania to Norway to be nearer Lisbet’s family. The couple are devout evangelical Christians whose oldest children, Elia and Emmanuel, befriend neighbor Noora and begin sharing their faith with her. At school, teacher Frida, who also works with Child Services, notices bruising on Elia during physical education and reports the family on suspicion of abuse. Mihai tells police he spanks the children while he and Lisbet deny they are abusive. Acting on his admission and the children’s testimony, authorities place the siblings in foster homes and open a parallel criminal in
