What does it actually mean to “become yourself”? How many times can you reinvent your life before it stops feeling like growth and starts feeling like pressure? And in a world that constantly tells us to choose, careers, relationships, identities, why does every choice seem to come with its own anxiety?

 

In this Watch & Talk session, we’ll watch selected scenes from The Worst Person in the World, a critically acclaimed, award-winning Norwegian film that is being called one of the most honest portraits of modern adulthood in recent years. Through its funny, tender, and sometimes painfully accurate moments, we’ll explore themes of reinventing yourself, choosing (and re-choosing) a life path, and the low-level anxiety that comes with freedom and endless options. You don’t need to know anything about Norwegian cinema, or even relate to the characters, to join. This is a smart, relaxed discussion about uncertainty, identity, and why feeling a little lost might not mean you’re doing life wrong at all.

 

Let's sit back with good friends in comfy chairs and watch scenes from a deep, funny and heartbreakingly real film that reminds there are still new stories to tell and new types of characters to relate to. And, of course, let's have a fascinating discussion about our mutual cinematic journey!

 

“成为自己”到底是什么意思？一个人能把人生重来多少次，才不会从成长变成压力？在一个不断要求我们做选择的世界里，职业、关系、身份，每一个选择为什么都自带焦虑？

 

在这场活动中，我们会一起观看《世界上最糟糕的人》中的一些片段。这是一部备受好评、拿过不少奖的挪威电影，被认为是近年来对现代成年生活刻画得非常真实的作品之一。通过它幽默、温柔、又有点扎心的瞬间，我们会聊聊反复重塑自我、选择（以及重新选择）人生路径，还有自由和无限选项带来的那种持续的低度焦虑。你不需要了解挪威电影，也不一定非要共鸣角色。这是一场轻松但有深度的讨论，关于不确定性、身份认同，以及为什么偶尔迷茫，并不代表你的人生走错了。

 

让我们和朋友一起，坐在舒服的椅子上，看一部又深刻、又好笑、又真实到心疼的电影，提醒我们还有新的故事可以讲，也还有新的角色可以产生共鸣。当然，也少不了一场关于观影体验的精彩交流。
