Reconstructing Utøya

Rekonstruktion Utøya

21st TDF: Greek Premiere

In July 2011, neo-Nazi Anders Breivik shot dead 69 young people and wounded over a hundred in 72 minutes, all participants in the Workers’ Youth League summer camp on the Norwegian island of Utøya. Six years later, four survivors from the horrific massacre reconstruct the dreadful events with the help of 12 young volunteers, in a black box studio that becomes an ark of remembrance. A shocking documentary that takes on an almost impossible mission: to speak of the unspeakable.
