2019-09-28T19:10:00.570Z
As a teenager Karen Winther joins a Nazi group in Norway. She is seeking fellowship, but the price to belong is high. After several years in the organization, she gets enough and chooses to leave. In her film, she looks for people who, like herself, have left a violent life behind them and explores the mechanisms that make young people choose to join extreme violence-promoting organizations. We gain insight into how it feels to live for something so destructive and to die for its ideology. Here are Nazis, IS warriors and extremist leftists who tell of memories they will never get away from the retina. About how they hurt people completely for no reason and the guilt that they will live with for the rest of their lives. A documentary by Karen Winther.
