Am I Really Free? is a first-person documentary built from a four-year personal archive — over 1,300 clips, 33 hours 38 minutes of 4K footage filmed across Oslo, London, Amsterdam and Kigali. It follows one question through institutions, borders and the long road back: what does freedom actually mean when the systems meant to protect you become the thing you have to survive?
Not a case file. A reckoning — told in the first person, on the record, and on the maker's own terms.
