“I felt a lot of responsibility to tell the story in a correct way,” reveals “22 July” star Jonas Strand Gravli. He plays Viljar Hanssen, a terrorism survivor who was shot several times by right-wing extremist Anders Behring Breivik (played by Anders Danielsen Lie) during Breivik’s devastating attack that killed 77 in Norway’s deadliest terror incident since World War II. Directed by Oscar nominee Paul Greengrass (“United 93”), this Netflix release recounts that horrifying true story. Watch our exclusive video interview above with Gravli and Seda Witt, who plays fellow survivor Lara Rashid.

Breivik became radicalized by anti-immigrant and misogynist ideas, and on July 22, 2011, he murdered 8 people with a van bomb outside the government quarter in Oslo before shooting 69 others to death at a political youth summer camp on the island of Utøya.
