Low Expectations

How far will you go to reach your dreams, when everything you do to succeed only makes you miserable?

A few intense years after her breakthrough as a musician, Maja falls apart. She has to put her career on hold, and – depressed and broke – moves back in with her mother, who has found her a part-time job at a local high school. Ordinary life turns out to be harder than she expected.

An emotional, intimate drama, and Landsvik's feature debut after the short film TITS (2023). Marie Ulven – Girl in Red – in her first screen role, with Tone Mostraum, Anders Danielsen Lie, Embla Berntsen and Snorre Kind Monsson. World premiere at Quinzaine des Cinéastes in Cannes.
