Vi vil oss et land... (We Want Ourselves a Country) was a 1936 election propaganda film for the Norwegian Conservative Party, directed by Leif Sinding. The title is taken from a poem by Per Sivle.
Plot The film showed, among other things, how unnecessary the workers' strikes were and how unnecessarily high the taxes were. In one scene, a man in a suit is pulled by trolls to Dovregubben's Hall. Dovregubben turns out to be ruled by the evil "communist" Norwegian Labor Party.
