Edvard Munch

The Brief

This renowned docudrama portrays the young Edvard Munch — his relationships within a deeply religious bourgeois family marked by madness, illness, and death, his encounter with the Kristiania bohemians, and his early, troubled experiences with women. Much of the dialogue is taken directly from Munch’s diaries, and all roles are played by non-professional actors, giving the film its distinctive, semi-documentary style.
