Bjørneboe - the author & the problem of evil
Documentary
2020
The history of bestiality is considered by many to be the main work of Jens Bjørneboe, and is also the foundation of the conversation this film is based upon. The paradox "the problem of evil" is the theme when two of Norway's foremost philosophers and three of our key authors meet.
"I do not believe that man is evil or that man is good - I think that man is partly evil and partly good ", said Jens Bjørneboe.
The conversation about evil we must constantly relate to - generation after generation. The problem of evil is particularly relevant to our own time by virtue of the unpredictable political, religious and environmental complexity we have never seen before.
The film presents in a light and poetic way relevant contemporary challenges, and helps us to be on guard against the many faces of evil.
