Iceland is Best

Sigga, 17 years old, announces to her parents that she is leaving her fishing village in rural Iceland to be a poet in California. Her friends step in to take her to the airport, but en route they inadvertently pick up half-Icelandic, half-American hitchhiker Nikki, who falls for Sigga on the spot. Just back from an unsuccessful stint in California, Nikki flirts outrageously with Sigga, who promptly puts him out on the roadside. His last 'chance' is to steal her luggage and obliges her to come to a party to collect it. He will do all he can to keep her; she will do all she can to go, each effort more painful than the last. With her friends hindering as much as helping, Sigga battles to find the future she wants to have.
