Equipped with a 25 dollar amateur camera, the Norwegian film director Gunnar Hall Jensen travels to India in order to understand why his own personality makes life uncomfortable. This personal documentary tells the story about the directors journey within himself, from childhood to adult. With humour and honesty, Gunnars voice carries us to the hidden corners of his soul. An incomplete version of the film won the documentary award from the Swedish Film Institute in 2002. The jury said; "A film that is so amazingly good because it is in a sense about all of us. About our lack of self-confidence, our fear of loving or being loved, about narcissism as a driving force."
The film was shot mainly on Super-8, by the director himself, and is 75 minutes long. It is a non-commercial independent documentary, partially financed by the Norwegian Film Fund.
