The Other Munch
This engrossing documentary follows much-acclaimed Norwegian writer Karl Ove Knausgaard as he prepares an exhibition of paintings by Edvard Munch and explores the links between his unique interpretation of Munch’s work and his own literary oeuvre. Presented with the support of the Royal Norwegian Consulate General New York.
Extended discussion with writer Karl Ove Knausgaard, and directors Emil & Joachim Trier
This engrossing documentary follows the much-acclaimed Norwegian writer Karl Ove Knausgaard as he is invited to guest-curate an exhibition of paintings by Edvard Munch at Oslo’s Munch Museum. Co-director Joachim Trier appears onscreen alongside Knausgaard as they visit several key locations from the celebrated painter’s life, searching for insights into his imagination and vision as they discuss his vastly influential oeuvre, his themes and obsessions, his approach to rendering everyday things and strongly emotional scenes alike. Knausgaard’s interpretation of Munch proves to be captivatingly unorthodox, and the Trier brothers thrillingly seek to connect his thoughts about the painter to his own literary project, yielding a double portrait of two of Norway’s most essential artists.
