Hunger
Drama
In 1890, Pontus, the starving writer, wanders the streets of Christiania, in search of love and a chance to get his work published. All he meets is defeat and suffering while his sense of reality is withering. One moment he is delighted and the next he curses everybody. All the time he manages to maintain human dignity and pride.
VIBE
A raw, unflinching portrayal of a writer's descent into destitution. It's a stark, existential journey through hunger and societal indifference, where moments of desperate hope clash with crushing despair.
