In 2001 Bogers made ’Force III’. Thematically related to ’Force II’ this new work uses the same external flashlight, lightning up the video-screen similar to the way it was used in Force II. The images are different though: On a patch of grass  we can see a man fighting/playing with a boy (father and son) in extreme slow-motion. Every time the flashlight is triggered a new scene shows up, confronting the viewer with a new scene, in which the dividing line between playing and having a grim struggle is very thin and hard to  distinguish. The sound of the flashlight is reduced to a slight electronic tick.
