简介：　　Set in Ålesund, A Human Position is a slow-paced film that unfolds in successive tableaux, to form a complete picture of the subtle changes and events that make up one&#39s life. It explores the persistence of memory and trauma, the definition of one&#39s moral values, and the possibility of joy.　　Asta is a journalist in Ålesund who seems plunged in a melancholic state, for a reason we discover bit by bit. Her supportive girlfriend refurbishes design chairs and plays the keyboard, while their kitten wanders around the house. One day, Asta reads a story in a newspaper about an asylum-seeker who is being forcefully evicted from Norway after having lived and worked a decade in the country. Gradually, Asta becomes more involved in learning about the case, and she has to find her position - both in her work and in her personal life.　　This beautifully-crafted film, bathed in soft colours, is a meticulous observation of Asta&#39s life after an unnamed trauma, and as external events invite her to reconsider her own relationship to reality. One newspaper article she reads is entitled, &quotConfronting our social conscience&quot, which is one of the topics of A Human Position. It&#39s also a low-key love story, with its routines and ups-and-downs, which feels very real.
