What happens

Kill Buljo is a 2007 Norwegian black comedy film directed by Tommy Wirkola. It parodies the 2003 Quentin Tarantino film Kill Bill. It is set in Finnmark, Norway and portrays the protagonist Jompa Tormann's hunt for Tampa and Papa Buljo. The film depends heavily on satirizing stereotypes about Norway's Sami population. According to the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet, Tarantino watched the film's trailer and was quite happy about it, looking forward to seeing the film itself. A sequel, Kill Buljo 2, was released on 20 December 2013. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
