Han

In "Him" we follow three angry misunderstood males in contemporary Norway, and we follow them in their life, one day in Oslo. The 11-year-old Harald is a boy who constantly falls outside every group. He's an outsider, not fitting in anywhere. The 30-year-old Emil is unemployed and therefore angry man, looking down on all around him. The third is 60-year-old Petter who is trying to make a making a film about the mal national hero Fridtjof Nansen, facing competition from other female directors. On this day he crashes into a car in the parking lot and makes a hit-and-run. But he is observed and gets a phone call, buy the angry Emil.

They are all in problems with modern-day Norway, where men have lost their dominance as a gender, and losing their reality grip, being bossed around by women.

This is Guro Bruusgaard's feature debut after some short films, as well as working on several other movies and she has gathered a solid bunch of Norwegian actors in this drama, which also has a lot of humor. The movie catches your interest right away and keeps it all the way.

The movie gives no answer, but tells a lot.
