Løkkeberg with a Norwegian Premiere at Kosmorama
In 1973, Vibeke Løkkeberg participated in the first international women's film seminar in Berlin. With a camera crew in tow, she documented the historic event, which brought together female filmmakers from around the world at a time when the feminist film movement was in its infancy. Over 50 years after it was filmed, Vibeke Løkkeberg's documentary The Long Road to The Director’s Chair is finally being shown for the first time. The film is a treasure chest of authentic stories, forming the foundation for a powerful narrative about women's rights, equality, and creativity.
Les merThe documentary faced heavy criticism in the 1970s and was therefore never shown to an audience. The film reels were packed away and forgotten until they were accidentally discovered at the National Museum in 2019. With the help of producer Anders Tangen, Løkkeberg’s lost documentary has been given new life and finally found its audience.
