Gunnar Goes God (2011)
Middle class life will never be the same
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.
