i choose death...
2 April 2023
Must be one of the greatest hardships of a decision to make in life, when being almost surtain that curability is like zero, and the only thing you want in the world is space , air to breath and calm quietness. Where do you go to find that??

Well this film is part bourdoux and part sognefjorden, NORWAY, in the midst of rural wilderness that you may come in the civilized world, and if you want to experience solitude , calmness and peace on mind, maybe for your latter days of your life, it should be a perfect choice.

This is really a dive into the salty bitterness of life before death, the small cast bears the burden with bravour, especially the love scenes where mighty touching and rivetingly well done. Some cyanotic skincolour on the make up dish wouldve helped a little bit to persuade the most sceptical viewer of the graveness of disease, but it must be an individual with an extreme good oxygene uptake, and of course the fresh norwegian air and scenery may help.

Because its a lovestory, a really hurting one, and its a story about choice and selfdetermination and individual consentual rights, the right to try to live as well as to die.

Norwegian actor bjørn floberg in the caracter as bent, the renter, surprise me in an awesome way, such a linguist and silverscreen artist may take generations to find.well done.

Productionwise this is urban vs the free and spacious nature, great visual prospect card sceneries, with a diligent coreographed acting, and dead on realistic demands on choices of life make the grumpy old man say,''why not'! Bravo madame directeur.
