Yun Fosse is an eminent Norwegian writer and playwright, winner of the 2023 Nobel Prize "For innovative plays and prose that give voice to the inexpressible," winner of the Nordic Council Prize and the theatrical equivalent of the Nobel Prize — the Ibsen International Prize, nominee for the International Booker Prize in 2020 and 2022. "For my plays, it's better when the emotions of the characters are covered with a tight lid—and they boil under that lid." The artist Asle lives in Dulgü. He mostly communicates only with his neighbor, a bachelor fisherman named Aslake. Occasionally, he has conversations with another artist suffering from alcohol addiction, whose name is also Asle. Both Asle are friends and in a sense represent two versions of the same life. On Christmas Eve, one of them finds the other in a snowdrift. Saving a friend from a cold death, the hero remembers the past and begins to look at friendship, faith and creativity in a new way. ". . .
