Sick of Myself

(dir Kristoffer Borgli)

This is by the people who did The Worst Person in the World, which I loved. It’s clever, smart and self-aware, and hands down the most surprising film I’ve seen in years. Kristine Kujath Thorp is absolutely incredible in it. She plays this woman who pretends to be sick to get attention, hypersensationalising her pain. In the opening scene she works at a cafe and this woman gets mauled by a dog, and she gets high off being the only person to attend to her. Then it completely snowballs from there. A must-watch.
