Inga Birgitta Spur found art as her life's calling at a young age. Her love for the artist Sigurjón Ólafsson and his art led the native Dane after World War 2 to Iceland. There she dedicated her live to enabling Sigurjón to create his works, despite the challenges of a foreign country and unfamiliar culture. Now, at over 90 years, she still directs the Museum she founded for her late husband. TORN gives us a glimpse of her perspective of this artist's oeuvre and her relationship with his art.
