What is an Into Film Club?

Synopsis

In the world Hiccup grows up in, things are fairly simple. Vikings fear and hate dragons and so they have to learn how to fight them. Hiccup is a little different, though, and he befriends a young dragon instead, which has the big advantage of meaning they can go flying together. Of course, there are plenty of other Vikings who think this is complete madness. This computer animated adventure is sweet and funny - and has a couple of thrilling battle scenes for action fans.
