    The Viking Saga (Documentary)
    Michael Picton – Composer

    Music co-produced with Neil Smolar
    Writer/Director: Mikael Agaton
    Producer: Lars Rengfelt
    Produced by Agaton Film & Television in co-operation with GalaFilm, Montreal


    Taking advantage of modern archaeology and new scientific technologies, THE VIKING SAGA weaves stories from the Viking world of 1,000 years ago into the discoveries and laboratories of scientific experts today. This unique look at Viking life proves these people more accomplished than stereotypes suggest. Viking adventurers are vividly portrayed through the eyes of leading scientists and historians, their astounding journeys are brought to life by authentic re-enactments on actual Viking ships. Excavations around the world reveal just how far and wide the Vikings travelled to build an empire that spanned the globe.
