Homo Sacco
Norwegian title: Homo sacco
Sophie's world is in free fall. With time off from university, she infiltrates Oslo's art scene, where curator Mr. K, critic Kjell and the artist Scram become her chess pieces. Haunted by traumas, Queen Sophie slowly moves her pieces towards the target: Checkmate. A wonderfully satirical and profound look at the Norwegian art scene, but also a serious examination of the world and society.
