Filmmaker Statement

Geir Karijord is my uncle. By following his last footsteps, I wanted to learn what I could about the uncle I never really got to know. Who was he deep within, and what led him to flee? Where was he going, and will he ever come back? What happens to those left behind when a person simply disappears? How do you find peace to move on when all you've got are unanswered questions? The past 10 years I have lived in a family weighed down by uncertainty and loss. I believe that this film was important to make in order to spread knowledge about the complexity of mental disorders and illustrate the fragility of the human mind. It would undoubtedly be valuable for the next of kin, but I also saw it as a duty to do what I could to convey the story of Geir to as many people as possible. In that way, I could help prevent something similar from happening again, and ensure that Geir would be remembered as a human being, not an unsolved disappearance case.
