Monday, Nov 24, 2025 3:15 PM
Grand Prix, Cannes 2025; Oscar Submission: Norway
After the passing of their mother, sisters Nora (Renate Reinsve), a neurotic actress, and Agnes (Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas), a selfless therapist, confront their estranged father, Gustav (Stellan Skarsgård), a once-celebrated film director seeking to revive his career with a personal project. When Nora refuses to take the role he wrote for her, Gustav turns to an eager young Hollywood actress (Elle Fanning), complicating their already strained reconciliation.
Joachim Trier’s brilliant follow-up to *The Worst Person in the World* sees him collaborating again with Reinsve to create a captivating and endlessly expressive protagonist whose unpredictable nature keeps us engaged. With outstanding performances all around, Trier skillfully extracts both humor and heartbreak from these flawed characters as they attempt to repair their broken family bonds.
