In every moment we make choices that define our being; choices that create shapes and patterns and carve out our lives. Until the pattern is broken – by faith, decision or coincidence. In Real Life is about such moments, where lives are drastically changed. As a multi-plot drama, created out of three years of acting improvisations, In Real Life follows three story threads with characters who come together by internet dating and by their persistent search for some kind of meaning in life between love and sheer survival.

i must have seen a different film!!
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
I have to say, this film is one of the better Danish films I have seen in a LONG time! It is funny yet serious and moving. I laughed, I cried and I left the cinema feeling thoughtful and encouraged to improve myself and my life! The characters are nuanced, and the actors have done an excellent job in my opinion! Furthermore, the fact that this film came to life mainly through improvisation is such an inspiration. If you like dramas that are serious and touching yet contain quite a few funny moments, I am quite certain you will like this film! Definitely a comeback for Jonas Elmer, who has been on a small detour since his amazingly funny film "Let's Get Lost" (which I also recommend!)
