The Greatest

2017 · 50 min

A quiet, uneasy backstage drama about creative blockage and fraying collaboration, more awkward tension than laughs.

Overview
Actor Micke and director Thommy try to create a one-man show together. With two weeks to go until the premiere, they still have no material. A relationship that started out professional has now turned into a private struggle that requires release and resolution.
