Dreams

Johanne is a young, sensitive girl who falls madly in love for the first time with her French teacher, Johanna. An intense love that she wants to preserve. She begins to put all her emotions, feelings, and experiences into writing, in a diary where she dedicates very passionate words to everything she is experiencing. 

Her mother and grandmother read what she has written, surprised to find such intimate and private content, but captivated by Johanne's literary qualities once the initial shock wears off. They debate whether it is moral to publish the girl's writings, whether it would have consequences, while she explores a space between the romantic and the real, embarking on a journey that will traverse self-discovery, love, and sexuality.  

'Dreams', originally known as 'Drømmer' is a Norwegian film from 2024 directed by Dag Johan Haugerud and featuring a cast led by Ella Øverbye, Selome Emnetu, Ane Dahl Torp, and Anne Marit Jacobsen. 

The work was awarded the Golden Bear for Best Film at the 75th Berlin International Film Festival and received the FIPRESCI Prize from the competition. 

It is the third installment of the Oslo Trilogy, concluding three interconnected yet independent stories that address themes such as sexuality, love, freedom, and desire from different perspectives.
