The Theseus Complex
Directed by Viktor Granö2018 28mDocumentary, Short
When he was twelve years old, Viktor Granö knew he would become the next Ingmar Bergman. In The Theseus Complex we meet the master director that Viktor Granö hasn't become. In staged interviews, he talks about his acclaimed feature debut, The Myth of Theseus. A film that never was. Alongside this, we see a collage of archive material from Viktor's teens: drawings of film posters, dreamed-up rave reviews and clips from highly ambitious VCR recordings. The Theseus Complex is an essay film in the tradition of Orson Welles and Hans-Jürgen Syberberg: as much a documentary as it is a work of fiction. It tells the story of an unfulfilled dream, of a son's vain struggle for his father's acceptance, and, not least, of a tremendous but unrequited love for cinema.
