Carl Størmer and his Detective Camera

Carl Størmer was walking around Kristiania in his day with his detective camera and taking pictures of people; captured situations, meetings, reactions and looks in a way that was not thought possible at the time. The film not only tells the story of the making of the images, but also about the city, the people and about photography as such.
