Per ‘Parker’ Andreassen had every opportunity to do what he wanted with his life. After experimenting with hard drugs in his youth, he gradually and unwillingly became one of northern Norway’s most famous characters. Famous for all the wrong things like drugfueled obnoxious behavior, mental issues and criminal activity. A career that lasted for 40 years where he was either stigmatized, feared and hated by most people in his local society. Every society in the world has characters like Per. Everyone knows about them and has heard stories about them, but few really knows them. ‘Parked’ is a portrait of him and his last living years, where we get to know him and get to explore the human behind the character. It’s a humane portrait that shows the dangers of experimenting with hard drugs and at the same time shows that the outcasts of society also has a story to tell. I started developing this project in 2013 and due to Pers bad health condition, I started filming that very summer. We kept filming on and off in 1,5 years until filming was stopped by Pers death. The film premiered at Tromsø International Filmfestival and became on of the most popular films at the festival. All screenings where sold in few hours after tickets went on sale. It was seen by approx. 3500 people.
