Børning: The Fast & The Fønniest, or simply Børning, is a 2014 Norwegian action-comedy film directed by Hallvard Bræin, written by Linn-Jeanette Kyed from a story by Christopher Grøndahl, based on an idea by Bræin, and produced by Filmkameratene. It takes inspiration from the Fast & Furious film series.
Anders Baasmo Christiansen plays the main character Roy, a man who gets dragged into the biggest illegal car race in Norwegian history. The journey goes through Norway from Oslo to the North Cape. Roy drives a 1967 Ford Mustang fastback with a 302 BOSS engine. The car is called 'Lillegul' (Norwegian for "little yellow"), named after his daughter who had jaundice as an infant.
The film premiered on the 14 August 2014. Two sequels, Børning 2 and Børning 3: Asphalt Burning were released in 2016 and 2020 respectively.
