Oslo Stories Trilogy: Sex

Part of Dag Johan Haugerud’s trilogy of stand-alone films exploring romance, intimacy, and desire in contemporary Norway.

Two men, both in heterosexual marriages, have an unexpected experience that challenges them to reconsider their understanding of sexuality, gender, and identity. One has a sexual encounter with another man, without considering it either as an expression of homosexuality or infidelity, and discusses it with his wife afterwards. The other finds himself in nocturnal dreams where he is seen as a woman, stirring confusion and leading him to question how much his personality is shaped by the gaze of others.
