Reprise (2006) (EN subs)

Reprise is Joachim Trier’s feature film debut (including The Worst Person in the World, Sentimental Value and Oslo, August 31st). In a fresh, assured style, he follows two childhood friends, Erik and Philip, who dream of a life as writers. When Erik’s manuscript is rejected and Philip suddenly breaks through as a literary sensation, their ideals clash with the reality of love, depression and fledgling careers. A clear and vivid portrait of friendship and the price of ambition.
