Little Eyolf (1982)

Directed by Michael Darlow

Overview

Alfred Allmers has spent his whole life writing a book on “responsibility,” a luxury he can afford as a result of his marriage to the wealthy and beautiful Rita. However, much to Rita’s annoyance, his attention isn’t always undivided toward her, as Alfred shifts his focus between his book, their son Eyolf, and his half-sister Asta. As Allmers slowly feels trapped in an unfulfilling marriage, emotions and a painful past threaten to boil over into a terrible finale.
