Description

Pride and humiliation wrestling. Desperation pushes a man out where all civilisation has been eliminated, and only a naked, quivering human, exhausted by hunger, is left behind.

He meets a well-to-do girl, which only illuminates his poverty even further, the stark contrast plain to see.

Hamsun dives into the depths of the soul and outlines the feverish hallucinations of a man, who has reached the edge. And yet, hope prevails. The hope of a better life never dies.

SVØLTUR (Starvation) is through and through a furious journey into the life of a person, who wanders the streets of a city on the verge of being crushed by destitute and the merciless fight to regain his footing in life.
