Description

Both Marianne and Tor go out of their way to avoid conventional relationships. When they meet by chance while Tor is looking for a one-night stand, he tells her about his experiences with casual intimacy. Intrigued by his approach, Marianne begins to explore whether this could be an option for her as well. Love is the second part of the trilogy Sex Love Dreams by director Dag Johan Haugerud. According to the Norwegian filmmaker, you can never make too many films about sex and intimacy—it's a realm with endless possibilities for exploration, especially now that technology (apps) allows people to meet far more easily, whether casually or not. His trilogy—Sex (2022), Love (2022), and Dreams (2023)—is also an invitation to let go of stereotypical, preconceived notions of \"men\" and \"women.\" People are not one-dimensional in their desires, and it's through open conversations about those desires that true connections are made.
