About Peer Gynt from the Streets
A group of street people plays in a cinematographic version of the 5th act of Henrik Ibsen's play Peer Gynt. The movie contains both fiction and documentary elements.
Directed by Hallvard Bræin, Peer Gynt from the Streets leans on a strong ensemble — Jan-Ivar Andersen, Marit Bojesen, Njål Djurhuus — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2008.
