& Sons
Pablo Trapero
Bill Nighy, Dominic West, Imelda Staunton, George MacKay and Johnny Flynn star in this film about a writer who tries to reconnect with his sons.
Johanne's (Ella Øverbye) intimate writings about her first love stir friction within her family, prompting her mother (Ane Dahl Torp) and grandmother (Anne Marit Jacobsen) to reexamine their own realities and dreams.
Johanne falls in love with her teacher (Selome Emnetu), and to preserve her feelings, documents her emotions and experiences in writing. When her mother and grandmother read what she has written, they are initially shocked by its intimate content but soon see that it has literary potential. As they debate whether to publish it, Johanne navigates the gap between her romantic fantasy and reality. She navigates romantic ideals versus reality, exploring emotions of self-discovery, love and sexuality, all delivered with elegant style by a tightly matched central acting quartet.
