A Line a Day Must Be Enough! (Faroese: Ein regla um dagin má vera nokk!) is a 2008 documentary film directed by Katrin Ottarsdóttir. It is a portrait of the Faroese poet, painter and performance artist Tóroddur Poulsen (born 1957). He has been referred to as the "black punk poet" of the Faroes, though this epithet is probably too narrow, it is precisely his anarchistic, experimental and subtle approach to poetry as well as life, which characterizes his artistic work.

Synopsis

[edit]

In a film bursting with lyrics, pictures, and music the director shows us a way into the peculiar universe of Tóroddur, and the otherwise not very talkative artist gives us a glimpse of his thoughts on art, God, life and death.
