Set in Northern Europe during the 8th century, this historical drama follows the struggle between pagan peoples and the expansion of the Frankish empire. After the Franks attack the lands of King Aldigsil and capture a key trading center, the king's son, Redbad, is cast into the sea. He survives the ordeal and is taken in by a Viking clan in Denmark. Redbad eventually returns to his homeland with the goal of reclaiming his heritage and uniting a powerful Viking army to fight against the Frankish forces and the spread of Christianity.
The film was directed by Roel Reiné, marking the 18th project in a career of 21 films, positioned after Inhumans: The First Chapter and before Fistful of Vengeance. The cast features Gijs Naber in the title role, alongside Jonathan Banks, Lisa Smit, Søren Malling, Derek de Lint, and Egbert Jan Weeber. Produced by companies including Farmhouse Film & TV B.V., the production had a budget of 8 million USD.
