Animator/animation director Jannik Hastrup did three films (se also "Trællenes børn", 1980, and "Trællenes oprør", 1979), each divided up in three episodes, all with the general theme of slaves under the thumb of oppressors. Using a consciously cut-out animation technique, this first trio of episodes covers the Viking Age, the introduction of Christianity, and an early revolt of thralls in abt. A.D. 1250.
