In defiance of societal norms, a pragmatic doctor and a compassionate nurse seek intimacy beyond the bounds of conventional relationships. Part of the Oslo Stories Trilogy.
Marianne, a pragmatic doctor, and Tor, a compassionate nurse, are both avoiding conventional relationships. One evening, after a blind date, Marianne encounters Tor on the ferry. Tor, who often spends his nights there seeking casual encounters with men, shares his experiences of spontaneous intimacy. Intrigued by his perspective, Marianne begins to explore whether casual intimacy could also be an option for her.
Join us this bank holiday weekend for The Oslo Stories Trilogy (Dreams, Love, Sex). An ambitious set of films from novelist-turned-filmmaker Dag Johan Haugerud, contemplating romance, intimacy, and desire in contemporary Norway. Witty, gentle, and eye-opening, Haugerud charts a full investigation on what contemporary love means in this series of films about romantic, sexual, philosophical and creative awakenings.
