Oslo Stories Trilogy: Sex

Two Oslo chimney sweeps share frank confessions on a coffee break at the beginning of Dag Johan Haugerud’s insightful, candid investigation into contemporary male identity and sexuality. Both men are in heterosexual marriages, yet have had an unexpected experience that challenges them to reconsider their understanding of sexuality, gender, and identity. One has recently had an impromptu sexual encounter with another man, without considering it either as an expression of homosexuality or infidelity, and has shared the experience with his wife afterwards. The other finds himself in dreams where he is a woman being admired by none other than David Bowie, stirring confusion and leading him to question how much his personality is shaped by the gaze of others and whether there are aspects of himself that he has suppressed.
