A Hijacking

On 08, Nov 2013 | In Stories | By Brandon Adams

Tobias Lindholm, writer and director of the excellent A Hijacking, notes

I couldn’t make a film about the truth of the hijackings in the Indian Ocean, because I don’t believe that truth exists. But I could make a film about seamen, pirates, CEOs and relatives. Because they do exist. And if A HIJACKING feels like it is about them, then I am very close to my goal.

Director’s Statement

How does your view of truth affect your filmmaking? Does your belief in truth require that you know the truth in every situation? Does your belief in black and white mean there is no gray? Do you give equal weight to the first line of Proverbs 21:2 as well as the second line?
