 Using an often surprising manic and fractured style, the film "Liden Tid" (Time Is But Brief), is exploring the visionary possibilities of systematic disorientation of the viewer s senses. Yet, the filmmaker skillfully manages to take the audience through a gut wrenching, nightmarishly absurd tale of a young man, whose life has gotten out of control. The contradiction of relentless desire vs. ultimate destruction taking over the main character s life is summed up in scenes, where a strangely detached American philosopher is spewing dead-on truths about life and death. With a reckless, somewhat sinister distance and dark humor, the director (Anders Bramsen) gives us an unposed picture of a soul, yearning for freedom, and raises the question of what s left when humans are incapable of, or unwilling to live life on life s terms.
