    • Synopsis
    • a film about the director Suzanne Osten and her power to point out our time. Often she has point out the taboos of our time in her setups but there has never been a setup coming closer to reality in that great extent as Difficult People
      The film, Difficult People is a reconstuction of a work that lasted in one and a half year and wasn’t without complications.
      It started with a commission to the actors in the ensemble of Unga Klara
      to think of a real person who they themselve think as a difficult person.
      In improvisations, often outside in the city, they developed their model to
      parts - characters that, sometimes threathend to invade their own personality.
      For the actors the work became an inside travel where they could not avoid to confrontate with their difficult sides of themselves.
