2025 · Directed by Joachim Trier · 133 min
Two sisters meet again after years of distance when their father, a once-celebrated film director, returns with a script and a proposal. The film is a dry, humane family drama about art, ego and the things people cannot say aloud, with comedy running through the pain.
Why it matters in cinema history
A late entry in the Scandinavian tradition of chamber family drama, running from Bergman to the present, and a mark of how that tradition now works through international co-production and a global film industry.
Watch with intention
Watch the film as a study of how people use work, rooms and objects to say what they cannot say to each other directly.
