Screening of Norwegian Ninja in Washington, DC

Last updated: 5/27/2011 // The most notorious modern espionage case in Norway, involving the diplomat Arne Treholt, undergoes an incredible transformation in the film Norwegian Ninja.

The film reimagines Treholt’s case as the tale of a Ninja entrusted by King Olav to lead a secret force of enlightened shadow warriors.  The Ninjas must defeat the conspirators at all costs to keep Norway free. 

Writer/director Thomas Cappelen Malling and producer Eric Vogel were both present for the screening of the movie at the Spy Museum in Washington DC.  The screening, which was followed by a Q and A by the audience to Malling and Vogel, was co-sponsored by the Norwegian Embassy.
