Oslo August 31
, story of the last day of a former drug addict before his relapse, his cinema hardly exudes the happiness of living.

, the tone is more joyful.
This is due in particular to its heroine, played by the excellent Renate Reinsve, a sweet mix of Natalie Portman and Anaïs Demoustier.

At almost 30, she finally worked in a bookstore and met love in the person of Aksel (Anders Danielsen Lie), author of underground comics.

Not her, but they don't really make it a point of contention.
