Agitator AS

Despite enjoying a well-ordered Scandinavian middle-class life, Gunnar feels a growing emptiness inside. Having too much of everything, and little of nothing. Searching for a deeper meaning he sets off to a Christian monastery in the middle of the Egyptian desert. Gunnar Goes God is a personal, playful and unpolished documentary about spiritual longing and middleclass boredom.

Plagued by depression, diabetes and alcoholism, and always searching for greater meaning-any meaning, Gunnar Hall Jensen travels to the spiritual promised land of many soul searches-India. It is there that he hits rock bottom, yet he soon emerges from the darkness with a new outlook on life.

In the remote Norwegian woods, a filmmaker with a bleeding gut, a lovesick farmer, a lumberjack with a heart condition, and a depressed elk-hunter unite in the ceremony of drinking tea. A dark documedy about disease, disorder and death. Who says existentialism can't be funny?
