Joachim Trier – Verdens verste menneske AKA The Worst Person in the World (2021)
Julie is a medical student in Oslo, where she starts a relationship with Aksel Willman, a comic artist fifteen years her senior. Now dabbling in writing, she spends a weekend with Aksel at his parents’ house. Aksel floats the idea of starting a family to Julie, but Julie is uncertain. While walking home from a publishing event for Aksel, Julie crashes a wedding reception and meets Eivind, a barista. Though both are in relationships, they spend the night together sharing intimacies. They exchange only their first names and part ways.
Julie writes a blog post about feminism and oral sex. Aksel is impressed with it and encourages her to post it online, where it receives attention. She celebrates her 30th birthday at her divorced mother’s home but her estranged father fails to attend, claiming he injured his back. Days later, Julie’s half-sister inadvertently reveals that their father was watching her play at a football tournament on the day of her birthday. He makes excuses to decline Aksel’s invitation to visit him and Julie in Oslo. While working at a bookstore, Julie encounters Eivind and his girlfriend Sunniva. At dinner with Aksel’s brother and sister-in-law, Aksel complains about the sanitized cinematic adaptation of his politically incorrect comic series Bobcat, leaving Julie feeling bored and ignored. She dreams that she goes on a date with Eivind, where they fall in love. The next day, she breaks up with Aksel.
Eivind leaves climate-conscious Sunniva because of their restrictive lifestyle. Julie and Eivind move in together. He hosts a small party where one of his friends uncovers Eivind’s stash of psychedelic mushrooms, which Julie consumes leading to hallucinations. The following night, she confides in Eivind that she can be herself around him, but he seems to ignore her claims. Aksel’s brother happens upon Julie at work and discloses that Aksel has inoperable pancreatic cancer. Sometime later, Eivind finds a short story Julie had written. When he assumes it is based on her real-life experiences, Julie angrily denies it and patronizes him.
Julie learns she is pregnant and delays telling Eivind. She visits Aksel in the hospital where he Aksel confides that he is afraid to die and still loves her. Julie admits that she is pregnant. Despite his assertions that she would be a good mother, she remains frightened. Returning home, Julie tells Eivind about her pregnancy, and they decide to separate while she determines whether she wants to keep the child. After spending time with Aksel, Julie later receives a voicemail from his brother reporting that Aksel is unlikely to survive the night. While showering, she miscarries.
Some time later, Julie is working as an on-set photographer for a film shoot. She photographs an actress and then sees her outside with Eivind and a baby. She returns home to edit the day’s photos.
