Sentimental Value

A film by Joachim Trier. Starts December 4th at the fsk. In Norwegian with German subtitles.

[Credits] [Tickets & Termine] [Trailer]

Winner of the Grand Prix at this year’s Cannes Festival, the spraw­ling inter­ge­ne­ra­tio­nal dra­ma AFFEKSJONSVERDI sees wri­ter-direc­tor Joachim Trier team­ing up once more with Renate Reinsve, the brea­kout star of his cele­bra­ted exis­ten­ti­al rom-com VERDENS VERSTE MENNESKE (2021). Reinsve plays Nora, a gifted stage and tele­vi­si­on actress we first see having an uproa­rious back­stage break­down befo­re her ope­ning night per­for­mance of Chekhov’s The Seagull. When her estran­ged father, Gustav (Stellan Skarsgård), reap­pears, he offers her a part in film he’s writ­ten about his mother, who was tor­tu­red by Nazis and died by sui­ci­de. Nora refu­ses, lea­ding Gustav to cast a Hollywood actress (Elle Fanning) in her stead. By tur­ning their Oslo fami­ly home into his own film set, Gustav upen­ds not just Nora’s life but that of her more well-adjus­ted sis­ter (Inga Lilleaas), a for­mer child actor who star­red in one of Gustav’s ear­ly films. Brimming with fami­li­al resent­ments and artis­tic anxie­ties yet distin­gu­is­hed by an awk­ward, under­sta­ted sen­se of humour, AFFEKSJONSVERDI is an absor­bing ensem­ble pie­ce about explo­ita­ti­on, memo­ry and legacy—and the power of artis­tic crea­ti­on to both heal past wounds and defer hard truths.
