English
An emotionally resonant dramedy by Joachim Trier (The Worst Person in the World, Oslo, 31. august) where two estranged sisters return to their childhood home when their aging, once-famous director father offers one a starring role... which she declines—only to see it go to a Hollywood starlet.
Old wounds, creative ghosts, and family yearning intertwine in a poignant story about legacy, love, and cinematic memory.
At its world premiere at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, the film was met with a 19-minute standing ovation—the third-longest in the festival’s history.
It earned the Grand Prix, marking the first time a Norwegian feature has won this prestigious award.
