Similar to Lilya-4-Ever, except without the comedy value. Noomi Rapace plays Anna, a single mother trying to make it as an actress, failing countless auditions, trading sex for parts and eventually turning to prostitution and pornography. The post-modernism in the film gets rather tiresome but all the acting is superb. The film features frequent references to Bergman’s Persona. The first half of the film is hampered by a highly annoying perpetually crying baby. By the end it’s rather like a po-faced exploitation film, depressing rather than fun, with two clear morals, never have children or try to make it as an actor.
3/5
