Shedding light

I killed two fish for this project, and made them suffer as little as possible, in order to film them and in order to eat them. Attempting to uncover something about either the natural process(killing and eating) or the more removed process(filming and editing), in an experimental entanglement.

This is a brief attempt at starting a dialogue about something I care about, which was the task we were given by Thomas Østbye in his documentary course the fall of 2017 at Nordland art- and film-college.

Filmed and edited by Stian Gledje Bekkvik.

With fishing help from Cassandra Nilsen, Laurens Perol and Are Rabben Teigen.

Also thanks to Thomas Østbye, Sille Storihle, Guro Bruusgaard, Katja Eyde Jacobsen, Katya Sander, Magnus Holmen and Julie Anett Spangebu for guidance.
