This is a great film to explain the existentialism. Well, that philosophical theory or approach emphasizes the existence of the individual person as a free and responsible agent determining their own development through acts of the will... and that is what our hero is lacking... balls to act willfully instead of following the elders who left him a burden of pressure to keep building what the family started. Dark and depressing tones set in a beautiful Scandinavian landscape just slowly build up to the tragic ending. Good acting, good directing but the script was a little bit loose, needs tidying up!
