Buy Bye Beauty is a 2001 documentary film by Swedish director and performance artist Pål Hollender. The film is about the way Latvian sex industry and its being fueled by businessmen and sex tourists from Sweden visiting Riga. The film was shot in Riga in July 2000. The narration of the film is in English, with interviews conducted in Russian and Latvian.

A "dogumentary", made according to Lars von Trier's Dogme rules for documentaries. Completely unprepared Pål Hollender and his friend-with-a-death-wish, Swedish pop star Olle Ljungström, went to Afghanistan, wrecklessly diving into the tension building up in September 2002, the anniversary of 9/11 approaching. The result is a series of visually strong and intimate scenes from Afghanistan. The disturbing ignorance of the two friends from Sweden is as relevant as the meeting with the Afghan people and their culture.

Pål Hollender recounts the experience of being abused by the father of a childhood friend. In abrupt shifts he is alternately the narration’s subject and object, the criminal and the case history, a fictional character and a real-life human being, pathologized and abandoned in a field of anonymous authority.

The artist, in his youth subject to sexual molestation, confronts a pedophilic sex offender and policeman, still in duty. Half-way through the process of subtle exploration of the policeman’s reflections on his pedophilic behaviors, the artist sets a trap. The policeman finds himself trapped on film in a sexual interaction with the artist, resulting in a change of the set social construction between the both. The artist transforms into the offender and the policeman now becomes the victim – of the film. After this event the policeman starts “spilling the beans” in his more and more desperate attempts to find a way out of the project. But the policeman had given his consent to the film and all of its content.
