Overview

When the media storm flared up in the wake of Jørgen Leth's memoir "The Imperfect Man" in 2005, it was mainly due to the passage about Leth's erotic relationship with the chef's young daughter. While the storm was still raging, friend and journalist Jørgen Flindt Pedersen contacted Jørgen Leth, who had been hiding from the public, to hear his reaction. "The price of sensuality" follows Leth for a year after its publication, in quiet moments outside the limelight, until the farewell the following late summer, when Leth goes home to Haiti.
