THE WAY TO MANDALAY
SÅ LÆNGE JEG LEVER
THE WAY TO MANDALAY is the story about one of Denmark’s greatest and most beloved musicians, John Mogensen and depicts his successes and failures throughout life and his inner dialogues revolving life, music, love, being a husband and father – and his struggle with his own perfectionism. The film takes us on a journey from John Mogensen’s childhood, throughout his time in the popular band Four Jacks to his late success as a solo artist – until his death in 1977 where he dies from a heart attack caused by an extensive alcohol abuse that followed him his entire adult life.
