Event Details : Habitat Film Club presents ' Upperdog' as part of 'Nordic Vistas' Series. 
Dir.Sara Johnsen (Norwegian/2009/100mins) 
In this lively drama-comedy, director Sara Johnsen explores issues of class, fate, love, and war in modern Norway. Half-brothers Yanne and Axel were adopted by different families as children and subsequently raised in vastly dissimilar social circles. Axel, son of wealthy, indulgent uppercrusters is snobbish, handsome, and a misogynist. 
Yanne, reserved and earnest, was brought up by a single middle-class mother. Both brothers become involved with Maria. Womanizer that he is, Axel takes this feisty Polish maid as his lover when he discovers her cleaning his parents’ immense home.
Maria’s second job as a waitress affords her the opportunity to befriend her co-worker, Yanne. It is Maria who eventually puts the puzzle together and introduces the long-lost family members—but which does not go quite as expected. 

Collaboration : Film Trust India, Norwegian Film Institute & Norwegian Royal Embassy

Theme (Series) : Nordic Vistas
There will be screening of Films exploring the cinematic landscapes of Norway under this series. 
The screenings will be on 2nd, 5th, 6th, 13th and 14th April 2012.
