No father-son relationships are alike – and this one is particularly distinctive. Over the course of 20 years, director and father Gunnar Hall Jensen documents his son’s life, from infancy until a brutal and tragic event changes everything.
Read moreHow does one become a good father? Is there a formula? Gunnar himself grew up without a father and instead looked to polar explorer Roald Amundsen as a masculine role model. He navigates fatherhood as best he can, makes clumsy mistakes, and gradually allows his son to take more responsibility for his own life. But the son’s ambitions and thirst for adventure lead him into a dangerous world far beyond his father’s control.
This powerful and extraordinary story shows how life can suddenly change course – unexpectedly and mercilessly. While an intimate portrait of one family, the film speaks universally about fatherhood and masculinity in our time.
