Feature film The Bitcoin Car
(Bitcoinbilen)


THE BITCOIN CAR is a musical adventure in which a young goat farmer on a small coastal village finds herself on collision course with the megalomaniac death wish of a young crypto investor. After her brother comes home for the summer, she has to explain that she’s partially responsible for the gold plated bitcoin mining facility located on top of the cemetery where their parents are buried because she accepted a lot of money in order to pimp out – and gold plate - her old Toyota. However, now unexplained natural disturbances have begun to occur. When her baby goat Klamydia is found dead and turned completely white, the siblings team up with an electrician and a priest to find out what’s going on inside the crypto mine before everyone is put in danger.
