Comic off-road movie about loneliness in a remote winterland
This film got highly praised at the Berlin festival before it’s cinema release in Norway, winning two of the main prizes. It also became a huge hit at the festival, with tickets going on the black market.

Well, the film isn’t a blockbuster. It’s a nice, though tragic, but warm story about 30 year old Jomar, not particularly successful in his life. Actually his life stinks, and he has problems. And he knows it. Lying to his shrink, living unhealthy, and not caring about anything. In fact so uncaring, that he finds himself burning down the ski center where he works, almost forcing him to look somewhere else for the meaning of his life.

So Jomar goes off on a 900 kilometers trip up North to find what is supposed to be his four year old son, of which he didn’t know about, before slapping his best friend who’d run off with his girlfriend some time ago.

On this trip he meets all kinds of lonely people, all having some kinds of wisdom to offer. And Jomar? Does he change their lives? Maybe he does…

This story by Norwegian master-writer Erlend Loe, gives a great feeling of both great winter-nature, and human understanding. It’ll be seen upon as exotic by most foreigners, and the film has some scenes you’ll never forget.

This film is another example of how great Norwegian storytelling on film has become. Great acting, also from the amateurs. No fake Hollywood stuff here. Pure Nordic realistic storytelling with a hint of humor. If you liked the films of Bent Hamer and Coen-brothers, you also like this.

The only thing dragging down is the film being too short. We’d actually like Jomars trip to be longer. And that’s a sign of a great road move. Or rather, a great off-road movie, since the film is more going on off-road, than on road. I still think I’ll put it in the genre of road-movies.

Another spot on Norwegian film! What a gem!

Review By: OJT
Hard to tell, is it good or not.
I felt that this film had a problem with the lack of story.

Somehow the film starts brilliantly and there is a brilliant scene with a teenager boy who has, at the least to say, a lot of problems.

Those were the brilliant parts of the film. I thought after the first 15 minutes, that this is going to be a masterpiece, but then it just dies. The plot vanishes and somehow the ending doesn’t give enough to justify the lack of the plot.

The main actor does a fantastic job and there is a lot of good in the cinematography, although I sometimes felt that this was an advertisement of Norway. There were so many landscape shots that you could easily get bored with them.

The music choice was also a little bit odd. It sounded like a country-tune coming straight from Texas. Do people like country music in Norway? Even with it’s problems, it is a nice film to watch as an voice from Norway.
