Sisters Nora and Agnes are surprised when their estranged father – esteemed filmmaker Gustav – arrives at their mother’s funeral. Gustav wants to reconnect, and approaches Nora – a successful but troubled actor – to play the lead role in an autobiographical film he’s written. She refuses, but Gustav won’t let go of his dream of shooting the film in the family home. The project takes an unexpected swerve when Gustav befriends a young Hollywood star and persuades her to take the role he’d envisioned for Nora.

Director Joachim Trier’s highly-anticipated follow-up to The Worst Person in the World is a richly-drawn family drama reminiscent of classic world cinema, featuring powerhouse performances from a cast that includes Stellan Skarsgård and Renate Reinsve.
