Peer Gynt

1993 · 1 season

A slow, theatrical staging of a restless life, asking patience as it drifts through encounters with a detached, ironic tone.

Overview: The classic tale by Henrik Ibsen; a complete opposite of a hero, is banished from his village for his (in)actions. He then travels the world with more or less the same result trying to impress.
How it feels: Melancholic, satirical, cynical and earnest. Slow-burning and demanding.
About: Identity, isolation, ambition, betrayal
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
