In this movie, the curator of a museum wants to open a new exhibit, but he is faced with a couple of challenges before the opening.
The tagline for a PR campaign for the promotion of a new exhibit in Sweden reads “How much humanity does it take before we access our humanity” This is the perspective of leading actor and curator, Christian Juel Neilsen and this movie constantly begs this question throughout its runtime.
Christian is a dignified and calm individual when the movie first presents him to us; however, there is a dramatic incident at the very beginning of the movie that pushes him out of his comfort zone. From that moment it becomes very difficult to predict the next occurrence yet you’d enjoy seeing Christian’s life fall apart one crazy event at a time.
The movie’s director does a good job of getting into our perceptions on self-righteousness, race and class on a regular basis. There is also some dark comedy and the supporting cast of Elizabeth Moss and Dominic West do help to create some uncomfortable experiences. This movie would leave you questioning the principles you’ve chosen to live by.
