We recommend from the age of 16 years and nights in Oslo. Marianne is a urologist who listens and supports her patients on a daily basis - men - in their heaviest and most fragile moments. He and his colleague Torah, the hospital's medium, unite the openness of the views. One evening, the two encounter the ferry. She goes home after a date, he is looking for responsive partners with a spontaneous look in her characteristic manner. Marianni and Torus are fascinated by a random conversation that causes both to overestimate intimacy, lust and tenderness, which do not always go closely along with physical love and erotica. These days and nights will be brought into conversations, revelations and experiences - they will change and heal.
When you look at Norwegian Heugerud's stories of love, you seem to have been grabbing gentle, warm hands. They remover your hair. Surrounded you tightly. Relieves your pain, clogged with your heart. The Utopia, as the director has been named in the main competition of the Venice Film Festival, is an attempt to gain sexual and spiritual intimacy with others, not always following the social norms that determine what the relationship should be. This screening will serve as a viewer's views and assumptions on the skin peeler - just like the characters in the film you want to call their own - and a reminder of what is truly human, deep intimacy and what makes us human. "Love" is the second part of the trilogy of Heugerud - it follows the movie "Sex" (2024) and is a prologue for "Dreams" (2025) (2025), which has been shown this year in Berlinal, acquiring the "Golden Bear" statuette and is also included in this year's Riga IFF program.
