The Coins Trailers

Inspired by a true story from 1968. Four boys bury some ancient Chinese coins in an excavation field and consequentially rewrite world history. A 15-year-old boy and his friends bury a handful of ancient Chinese coins in an excavation field, hoping to fool the local archeologists and impress the girls. But the news of the discovery quickly spreads to every corner of the world. Journalists, professors, and coin experts from abroad all rush to the city. Suddenly, the sleepy town of Stavanger is at the center of the world map. The main character, Henning, finds himself in an impossible dilemma: should he play along or tell the truth at the cost of destroying his own family?

Reviews
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
