Pelle Polis
Directed by Pål Hollender
The artist, in his youth subject to sexual molestation, confronts a pedophilic sex offender and policeman, still in duty. Half-way through the process of subtle exploration of the policeman’s reflections on his pedophilic behaviors, the artist sets a trap. The policeman finds himself trapped on film in a sexual interaction with the artist, resulting in a change of the set social construction between the both. The artist transforms into the offender and the policeman now becomes the victim – of the film. After this event the policeman starts “spilling the beans” in his more and more desperate attempts to find a way out of the project. But the policeman had given his consent to the film and all of its content.
