A film with no characters or events
rachel-0527726 October 2022
Firstly, it's very difficult to classify this film, mostly because the creators themselves seem to struggle with the classification. OK, if this is a comedy, then where's the fun? If this is a drama, where's the depth? If this a sort of noir social satire, where's the bite? The viewer is served a lukewarm narrative that might have served as a basis for a short film, but seems to have been stretched into a full feature without adding any meat to the bones. Very soon the viewer has to admit that there will be nothing but the bloodless yarn that doesn't even try to make a point or create any relatable characters. Give this one a miss.

Not for everybody - but I could relate.

Sandra is a highly qualified specialist in her 40s and loses her job. Follow her through her melancholic journey finding a new one, applying for stupid jobs in stupid companies ( you know, all these scrum infected positive team bonding fun to be party companies and start-ups), struggling with her daughter and her parents and of course with money. It's not a comedy but it touched me as I am in the same situation workwise.

If you're into Hollywood, if you're not interested in slightly depressing eastern european/scandinavian way of life, don't watch it. Also I am not sure if people under 40 can appreciate it. I could.
