Oslo Stories Trilogy: SEX at The Cube
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Dag Johan Haugerud’s triptych of sexual awakening tales opens at the Cube with this dryly comic, dialogue-rich story of two Oslo chimney sweepers navigating intimacy, freedom and the libidinal symbolism of David Bowie. A potent masculinity-crisis meditation from one of the most interesting European directors to emerge in years."

Oslo Stories Trilogy:Sex
Dir: Dag Johan Haugerud, 2024, Norway, 1hr 58 mins, Cert: 15

Sun 24th August // 19:30
Tickets: £5

Two chimney sweeps living in monogamous, heterosexual marriages both end up in situations that challenge their views on sexuality and gender roles. Part of the Oslo Stories Trilogy.

During a casual coffee break chat, one reveals that he had a sexual encounter with another man, while the other confesses to recurring dreams of David Bowie treating him like an attractive woman. These disclosures lead them to unexpectedly confront their sexual identities.

Sex is a film with frank conversations about the fundamental nature of relationships, with a thoughtful, refreshing, and humorous interrogation of heteronormativity.

Join us this bank holiday weekend for The Oslo Stories Trilogy (Dreams, Love, Sex). An ambitious set of films from novelist-turned-filmmaker Dag Johan Haugerud, contemplating romance, intimacy, and desire in contemporary Norway. Witty, gentle, and eye-opening, Haugerud charts a full investigation on what contemporary love means in this series of films about romantic, sexual, philosophical and creative awakenings.

Entry requirements: 16+
