IMDB - 11 wins
A beautifully told coming of age drama that deals with the dread forced upon younger generations by climate catastrophy, the destruction of the planet and its nature.
Seen through the eyes of her younger sister we follow Veras detereorating mental health and her manyfold and ultimately doomed ways to cope with the screaming injustices of the modern world and the hopelessnes she faces in a late capitalist dystopia, be it through art or hedonistic escapism. Cleverly, the film uses a beautiful Norwegian scenery as backdrop for its themes about the destruction of nature and the inevitable decay of all life in a world obsessed with growth, without showing the destruction itself. Rather, we experience its inescapable omnipresence in the psychosphere, as to underline, that there is no periphery we as humans can escape to from what we have done to ourselves.
