Synopsis

Dreams

Johanne falls in love for the first time, with her teacher. To preserve her feelings, she documents her emotions and experiences in writing. When her mother and grandmother read what she has written, they are initially shocked by its intimate content but soon see that it has literary potential. As they debate whether to publish it, Johanne navigates the gap between her romantic fantasy and reality, and all three women confront their differing views on love, sexuality, and self-discovery.

DREAMS (SEX LOVE) is part of the SEX-LOVE-DREAMS trilogy of director Dag Johan Haugerud.

Reviews

The light touch that Haugerud applies to hefty matters of the heart comes as no surprise in “Dreams” … consistently surprising and elastic in its reach
– Guy Lodge, Variety

Haugerud’s Sex/Love/Dreams trilogy — three overlapping words cleverly incorporated into the main title sequence — is an impressive achievement that’s admirable for the intricate layering of its themes and the overall lightness of touch. Savvy programmers and arthouse distributors should be lining up to play the three films as a package.
– David Rooney, The Hollywood Reporter

Elegantly styled, sensitively acted and crafted with keen intelligence
– Jonathan Romney, Screen International
