Sad-Face

Norwegian title: Lidefjes

Karina Karlsen Aase

It’s Christmas time in Bergen. Everybody’s on holiday, it’s cold and empty in the shared flat, the wifi is down and our heroine counts her pennies as she dreams of Sad-Face, the man with bookshelves and a career who she thinks is Mr Right. But is she sophisticated enough to satisfy Sad-Face? And isn’t Sad-Face actually a bit too bourgeois for a one-time punk? A fun, sharp, political tale of a failed student life.
