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.
Part of LOVE – SEX – DREAMS: THE OSLO TRILOGY. In this bold cinematic trilogy from 2024, renowned Norwegian author-turned-director Dag Johan Haugerud crafts three interconnected films that examine the shifting nature of human connection and intimacy. Each installment—LOVE, SEX, and DREAMS—offers a distinct yet complementary perspective, unfolding with Haugerud’s trademark attention to detail, understated dialogue, and emotional clarity. Together, they form a quiet yet powerful portrait of the complexities of modern relationships, approached with empathy, honesty, and subtlety.
“It’s so beautiful that you want to just keep dwelling in its world.” – Alissa Wilkinson – The New York Times
“Breezy, sexy, thoughtful … rather radical: a tender, gently observed relationship study that places as much stock in casual sex as in seeking a soulmate.” – Guy Lodge – Variety
“A shimmering, contemplative portrait of a handful of people and the modern city in which they live. Fair warning: It might make you want to move to Oslo… I’ll happily take two more.” – Zachary Barnes – The Wall Street Journal
