"Champions come and go, but a Legend never dies," Arnason said of his subject, the revered strongman Jon Pall Sigmarsson. Hjalti Arnason and one of Iceland's most honored filmmakers, Steingrimur Thordarson, made a major splash at the documentary's September 7th premiere in Reykjavik, which was attended by Icelandic president Olafur Ragnar Grimmson and guests coming from as far as California and Europe. The film has since broken all Icelandic box office records for a documentary and even more telling, it has moved audiences to laughter and to tears as it walks through the life of the man who made such a mark on so many people.
