WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD THE (2022) 

Synopsis

This modern dramedy about the quest for love and meaning in contemporary Oslo chronicles four years in the life of Julie (Renate Reinsve), a young woman navigating the troubled waters of her love life and struggling to find her career path. It is a warts-and-all journey of self-discovery, as she endeavours, with authentic human imperfections, to take a realistic look at who she really is. Fluidly told in twelve chapters, this contemporary psychological drama is the third film in a trilogy by Joachim Trier, who describes it as “a coming-of-age film for grownups who feel like they still haven’t grown up.” The mesmerising Renate Reinsve won the Best Actress prize at Cannes for her emotionally intricate and exhilarating character study of Julie. The film received two Oscar nominations for Best International Feature Film and Best Original Screenplay at the Academy Awards in 2022.
