HEART AND SONG (KARI BREMNES) (2013)

Kari Bremnes has lived a private life, despite her many years in the limelight. In this documentary, she tells, for the first time, of the illness that has, in many ways, made her into the woman we know today. As many as 1 in 3 suffer from cancer during their lifetime. 20 years ago, Kari Bremnes was diagnosed with the disease. It was to be a dramatic turning point in her life, but in many ways a positive turning point. 

We follow Kari on tours through Germany and Northern Norway, visiting her parents in Svolvær, and in the home of her good friend, Ketil Bjørnstad. Kari lives a hectic life with an ever-present passion for both music and life itself. Through this documentary we get a unique insight into the life of one of Norway's most famous and beloved artists.
