Knut Erik Jensen (b. 1940) from Honningsvåg has for many years been one of Norway's most acknowledged, prolific and polemic directors, in experimental short films, as a documentarist and as a poetic feature filmmaker. His childhood experiences tied him forever to northern coastal Norway, its wild landscapes, the harsh climate conditions and the distinctive spirit and history of its population. This have influenced Jensen greatly as a filmmaker in more than 100 films and TV productions. In his own words, Jensen makes films about ”the sea, the fish, love and death”.
