Utøya: July 22

Synopsis U – July 22 (Utoya 22. juli) (2018) On July 22, 2011, less than two hours after detonating a deadly car-bomb, and having already killed eight people in Oslo, the remorseless Norwegian far-right terrorist, Anders Behring Breivik, boarded the ferry MS ThorbjA¸rn in Lake Tyri. As the shocking news of the devastating Oslo explosion was starting to reach the ears of the unsuspecting teenagers of the Workers' Youth League summer camp on the remote island of UtA¸ya, the loud, sharp, and blood-curdling sound of Anders' first gunshots could only mean one thing: death. Now, for the next long and nightmarish seventy minutes, eighteen-year-old Kaja, her younger sister, Emilie, and approximately six-hundred young participants will find themselves drawn into a violent maelstrom of destruction, as Breivik, with cold-blooded precision, injures hundreds, and kills sixty-nine boys and girls. Will the world ever forget July 22, 2011, and the atrocious UtA¸ya massacre? ??Nick Riganas Awards: 4 wins & 12 nominations Budget: $22,000,000 (estimated) Worldwide Gross: $3,738,618 Soundtrack: Snakke Litt (Lyrics by Philip Boardman)
