Jan Erik Vold

From the sound of mountains and endless expanses, to the heavy pulse of the big city. Norwegian jazz is loved by fans all over the world. How did small Norway become a big jazz country?

Jan Erik Vold has been best known as poet, activist and an Oslo-patriot in exile for many years, but who is he really?

He was an anarchist and provocateur. Underground filmmaker and a cheeky fuck. Several of today's veterans in the Norwegian film industry started their career with him. Yet there are few today who know Bredo Greve. In Bredo Greve - filmrebell you will get to know the filmmaker's marvelous film history. Greve was always ready for a good fight, and he used film to pinpoint problems in society that are still scarily relevant.

A portrait of Norwegian poet and novelist Tarjei Vesaas (1897 - 1970).

Operation Blood Spray is in opposition to military comedies. Bredo Greve did not want to create entertainment; on the contrary, he exposes the military and the atrocities of war through powerful imagery. The poet Jan Erik Vold plays a confused man who desperately tries to get rid of a female ghost. Greve directs his meta-criticism both at modern, alienated urban society and the use of violence as entertainment.
