Plot

Julie, a woman in her late twenties in Oslo, changes her career and her partners, never quite knowing what she wants. She leaves her older boyfriend, a graphic novelist, for a younger man, and has to face adulthood. Joachim Trier's 2021 film, the third of his Oslo trilogy, with Renate Reinsve, who won the Best Actress prize at Cannes, was nominated for two Academy Awards.

Sinekatalog’s take

Joachim Trier follows a young Oslo woman through love affairs and career changes in twelve chapters. Funny, bittersweet and sharp about drifting through your thirties, with a standout Renate Reinsve.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
