Plot

As the last of the 20th century dwindles away in November 1999, we meet Trond (Stellan Skarsgård), a man of 67 years choosing to embrace the solitude of self-imposed isolation. His only company is the anticipation of the impending millennium, a symbol of solitude against the backdrop of a world celebrating in unison. However, winter brings an unexpected guest in the form of his seldom-seen neighbor, Lars (Bjørn Floberg). This encounter unravels a shared history dating back to the summer of 1948, a transformative year that marked Trond's passage to adulthood. 'Out Stealing Horses', adapted from the acclaimed novel by Norwegian author Per Petterson, is a profound exploration of a man's past, interweaved with the raw beauty of Norway's landscapes. This bestselling novel, which garnered numerous international accolades and found a spot in The New York Times '10 Best Books of 2007 (Fiction)', has been translated into over 50 languages, its narrative universally resonating. The film mirrors the intricate tapestry of Petterson's words, unfolding a poignant story of memory, identity, and the indelible marks left by time.
