Special Screening: Norwegian Offspring

In this special screening, we meet Stein, who is obsessed with theories about the suppression of male sexuality in modern society. When his mother, with whom he has lost contact, is found dead in her apartment in Copenhagen, he is left without reconciliation. Most of all, he wants to fulfill his human purpose: to reproduce. This is a story about sexuality, fear of death and the longing for connection.

The mid length film Norwegian Offspring won the student film competition La Cinef at Cannes Film Festival 2023. It was the graduation film from the Danish Film School for Norwegian Marlene Emilie Lyngstad, well known to Minimalen’s audience through a number of previous short films. She will be present to introduce the film and answer questions from the audience.

Stein er besatt av teorier om undertrykkelse av mannlig seksualitet i det moderne samfunn. Når hans mor, som han har mistet kontakten med, blir funnet død i leiligheten sin i København, står han igjen uten forsoning. Mest av alt ønsker han å oppfylle sitt menneskelige formål: å reprodusere.
