On July 22, 2011 Anders Behring Breivik killed 77 people and injured more than 200. What made a young Norwegian man put on a police uniform, set off a bomb in Oslo and sail out to the island Utøya on a quest to shoot as many politically active young people as possible? Before the terror attack Anders Breivik sent out a 1500 page manifesto containing everything from racist propaganda, philosophical reflections and bomb manuals to interviews he conducted with himself together with diary entries.
Manifesto 2083 is a deeply unsettling solo show that gives an extraordinary insight into the mind of man who radicalized himself in order to commit an act of terror that shocked the world.
