Everyone Loves Kari

Kari Brattsjå once dreamed of becoming an actress but ended up as a prompter at the National Theatre instead. Now, she is on the verge of being evicted from the apartment she has lived in ever since she left Drangedal for Oslo fifteen years ago. But rather than looking for a new place to live, she sets out to fix the lives of a depressed writer struggling with writer’s block and a washed-up actor hoping for a comeback on stage.

It’s the same old story: Kari throws herself into other people’s problems to avoid dealing with her own. She might not be doing great, but at least she’s having fun. And for Kari, that trumps everything.
