TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Large parts of the film were filmed in two versions at the same time, one in Norwegian, the other in English, in order to secure international funding.

In 2006 Olav Heyerdahl, Thor Heyerdahl's grandson, made the same voyage crossing the Pacific Ocean from Peru to Polynesia as a tribute for the original travel. It was shown in the documentary The Tangaroa Expedition.

The film's producer, Jeremy Thomas, had wanted to make the film since 1996 and was granted the rights to the story by Thor Heyerdahl before the latter's death in 2002.

The filmmakers decided to shoot the ocean scenes on open water, rather than on a set.

Norway's most expensive movie to date (2015)

Popular Dialogues

"Epilogue: Bengt fell in love with Polynesia. He settled there and became a Consul General of Sweden. He died in 1997. Epilogue: Erik built himself a sailboat, that became his home for 11 years. He worked as an artist until his death in 1972. Epilogue: Torstein kept going on expeditions. He died in 1964 during an attempt to reach the North Pole on skis. Epilogue: Knut resumed his career in military intelligence. He was also instrumental in the establishment of the Kon-Tiki museum. He died the Christmas of 2009. Epilogue: Herman became the director of UN's Food and Agriculture organization. He died at Titica lake in 1986. Epilogue: Thor wrote a book about Kon-Tiki. It was translated to over 70 languages, and sold over 50 million copies. The documentary about the expedition won an Oscar. Liv and Thor divorced after the Kon-Tiki expedition. Their boys lived with Liv, who later moved to the US where she died in 1969. Thor continued his work as an experimental archaeologist, author and explorer. He died in 2002."

"Liv Heyerdahl: [Thor reads a Liv's letter. Liv voice-over] My love Thor. You made it. You proved what Tei told us that night on Fatu Hiva. You don't need to learn how to swim. Should you fall in the water, you would float on willpower alone. As you might have understood, I'm not in Tahiti waiting for you. Because what was supposed to be our lives, turned out to just be yours. You are who you are. And you're going to spend the rest of your life chasing sunsets. Thor, this wasn't about exploring the Pacific Ocean. More important than going, was why you had to go. Why you couldn't stop yourself from putting everything behind you, steering towards the unknown. But that is you, my beloved Thor. And the irony is that what I love you the most for is what drove us apart. Liv."
