Sisters Nora (an Oscar-worthy performance from Renate Reinsve) and Agnes (Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas) reunite with their estranged father, the charismatic Gustav (Stellan Skarsgård), a once-renowned director who offers stage actress Nora a role in what he hopes will be his comeback film. When Nora turns it down, she soon discovers he has given her part to an eager young Hollywood star, Rachel Kemp (Elle Fanning). Suddenly, Nora and Agnes must navigate their intricate relationship with their father as he turns their former home into a film set while Rachel is dropped into the middle of their complex family dynamics.Directed by Oscar-nominee Joachim Trier (The Worst Person in the World, in which Renate Reinsve also starred), Sentimental Value, "strikes a delicate balance between both character and theme as one works excellently in service of the other. As we cut between Gustav remaining so dead set on getting his production off the ground that he will compromise fundamental parts of himself to do so and Nora seeking peace in her relationship with her father, we come to know both of them so fully it hurts. Trier is never judgmental of either as he instead uses every scene to cut into another, deeper layer of their respective psyches."—Chase Hutchinson, TheWrap.
