BRUGGGORE “Eye of the Beholder” - 2023 winner Viljar Bøe (Good Boy) is honoring us with a new film in 2025. ABOVE THE KNEE is about a man who wants to amputate his left leg. He just doesn't like it — he doesn't like it, is annoying, feels like a foreign body part. It's called Body Integrity Identity Disorder. Bøe turns it into a gripping, atmospherically dense work with convincing acting, a simple but effective setting and the typical Nordic undercooledness.
