Film Review: Paris, 13th District (FRA 2021) and The Worst Person in the World (NOR 2021)

Content:  In this podcast, we talk about Millenials, born around the year 2000. We want to take a closer look at their lives and compare two films. “Paris, 13th District” shows the relationships of young people in Paris, which are characterized by superficiality and digital alienation. “The Worst Person in the World” portrays a young woman in Norway who wanders aimlessly through life, searching for her place.  Both films capture the restlessness and indecision of a generation that has grown up with the internet.Plot:  Paris, 13th District (FRA 2021)  Émilie meets Camille, who is attracted to Nora, who in turn encounters Amber.
