With six features—including his acclaimed latest, SENTIMENTAL VALUE—to his name, Norwegian auteur Joachim Trier has established himself as one of the most virtuosic directors working today, a humanist who brings novelistic depth and insight to his intimate portraits of people grappling with everyday existential crises. Particularly attuned to the messy emotional realities of young people navigating the turbulence of early adulthood, his films—including the haunting portrait of a day in the life of an addict OSLO, AUGUST 31ST; the quietly powerful family drama LOUDER THAN BOMBS; and the spellbinding supernatural thriller/queer love story THELMA—vividly capture the full spectrum of the human experience, from the crushing lows to the exhilarating highs.
