“Releasing ‘Made in Mosjøen’ for free is not me giving into piracy and throwing more traditional release models overboard,” he told Empire of the release strategy. “As this is my personal project, it’s a chance for me to actually try to play a bit of ball with the filesharers and gain some audience insight, which I believe is vital knowledge to be able to survive as a filmmaker in the rapid evolving market. As far as I’m concerned, not being flexible means eventually breaking.”
