Drømmer
Seventeen-year-old secondary school pupil Johanne from Oslo finds her life rather dull. But then a new French teacher arrives at school: Johanna, a vivacious and attractive woman. Johanne is immediately smitten and falls head over heels in love with her. She doesn't know what to do with these intense feelings and decides to visit the object of her affection at home. There she receives a warm welcome.
She writes down everything she experiences and feels and lets her grandmother, the poet Karin, read it. Karin is shocked by what she reads, but at the same time impressed by her granddaughter's writing talent. She also involves Johanne's single mother Kristin in the events. Should it become a book or is it a case of sexual abuse?
Drømmer (Dreams) is the final part of Dag Johan Haugerud's Oslo Trilogy, in which he reflects on love and relationships, following Sex and Love. This finale earned him the Golden Bear at the last Berlinale.
