You can't stand alone forever

Best friends David and Morten work as gym instructors at Jarle's gym. Jarle is a sadistic small-time criminal whom, together with his son Lars, purchase and distribute anabolic steroids.

VIBE

This film feels like a cold, hard look at the underbelly of Oslo. It's a raw, unflinching portrayal of desperation and the corrosive effects of toxic masculinity, set against a backdrop of grim social issues. The atmosphere is heavy and suffocating.
