“'The Oath' seems like the perfect project for me, coming off the back ...” — Baltasar Kormakur Quote

“'The Oath' seems like the perfect project for me, coming off the back of a big-scale adventure film like 'Everest.' I want to delve into an intimate, dark and psychological world where the characters are claustrophobic.”

“The winters are too long, and there's only one airline, so it's difficult to escape when you feel frustrated or claustrophobic. The audience for our films isn't very large, so it's difficult to support an industry. But, Iceland is beautiful. Sometimes it's hard to imagine living anywhere else.”

“The point is, when you have a chance to have a big adventure, especially if, like in your case, it doesn't hurt anyone, it's just plain foolish not to take it.”

“My definition of an adventure game is an interactive story set with puzzles and obstacles to solve and worlds to explore.”

“I had always been intrigued by the emotional aspect of adventure gaming-the fact that people get so personally involved.”
