The Worst Person in the World (2021)

The Worst Person in the World (2021) is an intimate, four-year portrait of Julie, a young woman trying to find her place in life as she navigates tumultuous relationships and an uncertain career path. Directed by Joachim Trier and anchored by a standout performance from Renate Reinsve, the film combines wit and melancholy to explore identity, choice, and the messy, often contradictory realities of modern adulthood. Viewers can expect a quietly powerful, character-driven experience: episodic vignettes that shift between light, awkward humor and cutting emotional honesty, a strong sense of style and atmosphere, and moments that provoke reflection about who we are and how we live. With impressive critical reception, the movie rewards patience and empathy—it's both relatable and unsettling, leaving you thinking about love, responsibility, and the consequences of the choices we make.
