Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga
Available on Netflix
The lifetime goal of Lars Erickssong (Will Ferrell) is to participate and win Europe's most important annual singing competition in EUROVISION SONG CONTEST: THE STORY OF FIRE SAGA. Still living at home with his disapproving dad (Pierce Brosnan) in a small town in Iceland, Lars and childhood best friend Sigrit Erickssdottir (Rachel McAdams) have worked for decades to make Fire Saga, their band, a worthy competitor. In Lars' mind, 2020 will be their year to shine. Sigrit's beautiful voice, however, cannot compensate for her partner's limited talent and propensity for messing up. A fluke gets them into Iceland's regional finals. A tragic explosion sends them to Edinburgh, Scotland, as Iceland's entry. Complicating their quest for the championship is Sigrit's longstanding but unspoken love for the clueless Lars, as well as an unsettling connection (for Lars) with Alexander Lemtov (Dan Stevens), a Russian singer with a yen for Sigrit.
