Sentimental Value

• -/10
• Directed by Joachim Trier
• Release dates : 2025

After the passing of their mother, Sissel, estranged sisters Nora and Agnes Borg must confront their father, Gustav, a once-renowned film director now relegated to obscurity due to his abandonment of the family during their childhood. Nora, a dedicated stage actress, prioritizes her career above all else, while Agnes has embraced a stable life with her husband, child, and secure job, creating a stark contrast that strains their relationship. Gustav, seeking to reclaim his former glory, pens an autobiographical screenplay centered on his mother, whose tragic suicide in their Norwegian family home was rooted in the trauma she endured from Nazi torture during the war. Offering the lead role to Nora, he faces rejection and instead casts Hollywood actress Rachel Kemp, whom he encountered during a retrospective of his work in France. As production begins, Gustav views this project not only as a chance to restore his artistic reputation but also as an opportunity to repair the fractured bonds with his daughters, navigating the complexities of familial reconciliation amidst the shadows of past pain and ambition.
