The Minister

The newly elected chairman of the Independence party, Benedikt, has formed an alliance with the social democratic alliance for the upcoming elections; unexpectedly, he announces that he will resign if there is not a 90% voter turnout.

As Benedikt takes the office of the Prime Minister, the other powers in play consider their options. He spends his time convincing the nation to form a coalition treaty through Twitter, which draws international attention.

When Rikarður contacts Benedikt to ask him to help with a dispute in his parish, Benedikt's impulsive reaction is to separate church and state.

Benedikt travels north to sign a permit for the construction of a hotel resort in his hometown, where he meets his ex-girlfriend who convinces him to prohibit the construction.

Benedikt abuses his temporary power as president to set a provisional law providing the family of a Ukrainian doctor with citizenship.

The parliament discusses the option of adopting the Euro, however, Benedikt is obsessed with reworking a medieval music transcript into a musical.
