The Play of Everyman | Documentary | 2021 | 31 min. The film The Play of Everyman (2021, 31 min) depicts Norway's first climate trial by placing the audience in the midst of the court proceedings. Is the record-high trust that Norwegians have in their authorities justified as the existential threats of climate change and ecological breakdown escalate? Civil Disobedience | Documentary | 39 min. The upcoming film Civil Disobedience (39 min, shown as a work-in-progress) follows climate activists from Extinction Rebellion and Just Stop Oil during the blockade of Norway's largest fuel port for aviation. The film takes us on an intimate journey behind the scenes of civil disobedience, the emotional challenges, and the struggle to break through the wall of mainstream media. During the filming, the police deployed their counter-terrorism unit Delta, banned the media, and arrested the filmmaker.
