A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

It's been more than a year since I saw this movie, very much by accident, at Gothenburg Film Festival, but it's probably the funniest documentary I've ever seen. It's about Norway the last 100 years, since the breakup of the union with us :-). There's a lot of serious business in it as well, for example the part about World War 2 and the aftermath, so it shouldn't be underestimated as being just a feel good movie, but I'll remember it mostly for the laughs and especially the jokes which, unfortunately, I think you'll have to be either Swedish or Norwegian (sometimes Norwegian) to understand completely. The kid in the end is the best! The entire auditorium exploded with laughter when he was on; "Norwegians are nice. They're absolutely not idiots".
