Flåklypa Grand Prix (The Pinchcliffe Grand Prix) in Concert
The Il Tempo Orchestra - Vikingskipet
Program Info: Bent Fabricius-Bjerre - Flåklypa Grand Prix
Thirty-seven miles to the north, a little east and upwards, lies Flåklypa, a small mountain village under the firmament
This is the opening of Norway’s most watched film of all time. With more than 5.5 million cinema tickets sold since its premiere in 1975, annual screenings on linear TV, and countless VHS, DVD and BluRay sales, as well as now also on various streaming platforms, Ivo Caprino’s masterpiece Flåklypa Grand Prix has become an undisputed part of Norwegian cultural heritage.
In 2025, the film celebrates its 50th anniversary, and in August there will be a world premiere of the film in concert format! At the concert, the audience will experience the unique film on the big screen for the first time ever while Bent Fabricius-Bjerre’s iconic music is played live by symphony orchestras. His music from 1975 has become a legendary soundtrack that many have a strong relationship with. And the music is performed by the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra, Stavanger Symphony Orchestra and The Il Tempo Orchestra!
Flåklypa Grand Prix holds a unique position in Norwegian film history, and is internationally recognized as one of the very best stop-motion films (one frame for each movement) of all time. Since its restoration in 2005, the film has further strengthened its prominent position, giving new generations the opportunity to discover and fall in love with the film, the unique characters and the magical Flåklypa universe.
