Sex

“A resounding bravo must sound from here and all the way up to Norway for Dag Johan Haugerud's' Sex ', which depicts in two uplifting hours some existentially confusing and emotionally challenging days in the lives of two quiet and quiet, happily married chimney sweeps,” wrote Information's Lone Nikolajsen excitedly about the first film in Haugerud's trilogy' Sex ',' Dreams' and 'Love'. The film paints a sensitive and amusing portrait of two men who, somewhat surprisingly for both of them, feel attracted to their own gender while being happily married to each their own woman. Their honesty between them is refreshing, and added to wonderful images of Oslo and a jazzed score, you as an audience are in superb company from the first to the last minute.
