The video is shot outside the walls of Oslo regional prison, situated in the eastern part of the center of Oslo. People come here to shout messages to the inside. The inmates of this prison are mostly of non-Norwegian ethnicity. The buildings surrounding this parkinglot makes a triangle of prison - police headquaters, and - theWorld Islamic Mission Mosque. The call for prayer from the minaret is by Norwegian law restricted to below 60 desibel (same loudness as a normal conversation), not for longer than three minutes and not more often than every friday. The title is inspired by a term in film-making, the willing suspension of disbelief is allowing oneself poetic faith, allowing oneself to surrender to the fiction presented. |
