Paul Greengrass’ latest film “22 July” tells the story of a mass shooting in 2011 in Oslo, Norway, but he feels that the tragedy speaks both globally and to life in 2018. “I wanted to make a film about how Norway responded to a right-wing terrorist attack, how Norway fought for democracy, because I think that’s first of all an inspiring story, it’s a story of our times,” Greengrass told TheWrap’s Steve Pond at TIFF. “This unprecedented shift to the far right is occurring today. It’s right in front of our eyes. It’s a problem across Europe and across North America.” Subscribe to TheWrap's YouTube: http://bit.ly/TheWrapYTSub Subscribe to Our Newsletter: http://bit.ly/TheWrapNewsletter Twitter: http://bit.ly/TheWrapTwFollow Instagram: http://bit.ly/TheWrapIG Find us at www.TheWrap.com
