A screening of Joachim Trier’s Cannes hit, a reworking of Louis Malle’s New Wave classic The Fire Within. This story of a young man’s fade-out is a triumph of sensitive insight and observation, a smart, sharp portrait that even finds within its heavy subject matter the chance for warmth.
Recovering drug addict Anders is given a day’s leave from his rehab center to apply for a job in the city. Over the course of one day and night, he tries to reconnect with his old friends and family in Oslo, where the ghosts of his past mistakes wrestle with the hope to see some future by morning.
Directed by Joachim Trier (2011). Film duration: 1 hour 35 minutes. Certificate 15.
