What He Did

Det han gjorde

In 1988 Jens Michael Schau killed his partner of 13 years in a fit of jealousy. The victim was Denmark's best-selling author and prominent homosexual Christian Kampmann so the scandal was unprecedented. What went wrong? Schau was sentenced to ten years in prison, serving the time in a psychiatric hospital. Today he lives in isolation, filled with guilt for what he did. In this documentary about love and jealousy told through inventive interactions between film and theatre, Jens Michael Schau tells his story for the first time.
