Synopsis

Vicky is the clever son of Halvar, the strong chief of the Viking village, Flake. Unlike his muscle-focused father, Vicky uses his intelligence to prove that brains can rival brawn. When their village is attacked and its children, including Vicky’s girlfriend Ylvi, are kidnapped by Sven the Terrible and his pirate band. Vicky teams up with Halvar and the village Vikings to mount a rescue mission.
