Good Machine Gun Sound

A short film about a young boy's first encounter with death, by Truls Krane Meby.

 
 
 

"Shot with a dreamy richness that unveils the vicious greens of the Norwegian forest and the foreboding of a mid-day when the corners of a room are lost in shadow, Truls Krane Meby’s film gently leads us down to the sunken landscape of childhood emotion, so much more vivid for being unreachable by words."

Good Machine Gun Sound

God Maskingeværlyd

2014. 

Make an RRRR sound. Then make small bursts of Ts that force themselves through the r’s. A good machine gun sound. Now go play.

Arvid is eight years old when he encounters death for the first time. We float with him through the strange landscape of grief that now surrounds him.
