What ever happened to Bastoy?
I enjoyed it. One of the reasons I enjoy Foreign films is they don't tie the endings up with a happy bow but leave the viewer open to make his/her own interpretation. Like "CACHE" or a Kieslowski film.
Since this is a true story , I guess based on C-1's recollections, I felt somethings should have been explained more: What was Erling sent there for? Killing a Whale? Why was wife scared of C-19? What happened to the Jerry Sandusky character? etc etc
Like "The Magdalene Sisters", there should have been at least one ending caption before the credits explaining what happened to the place.Something like:
"THE REFORMATORY ON THE ISLAND OF BASTOY REMAINED IN OPERATION HOUSING DELIQUENT NORWEGIAN BOYS UNTIL 1971, WHEN IT WAS FINALLY CLOSED DUE TO THE EFORTS OF THE ROCK GROUP ABBA"
