Monster Thursday is a Norwegian surfing movie in which a regular guy finds himself not only searching for the perfect wave but also stuck in the middle of a love triangle!

"Even" leads a directionless life. "Tord," his best friend, is the opposite: a great surfer with a prestigious job and beautiful "Karen" as his bride. When Tord asks Even to look after Karen while he is out of town, Even decides to clean up his act and master the waves to impress her. At first he's a prime candidate for drowning, but a local surfing legend becomes his mentor, and Even, Tord and Karen end up on a collision course with the monster wave.

Monster Thursday was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize in World Cinema - Dramatic, at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival, and was an Official Selection at the Bergen Film Festival, Cleveland International Film Festival and the Iceland International Film Festival.
