It is Ida and Marvin’s anniversary. For three years, they have shared everything on their minds. They fall asleep together, they get up together, they even bought a house together. So what if it all happened online. It was no less real for both of them. Until Marvin finds another girl. IRL. Meaning in the real world. The Norwegian romantic comedy about growing up, getting to know yourself and each other, is so inventively told that it has already won the award at the Series Mania festival this year for best series in the international selection there. It has not escaped our attention either, and that is because this fragile yet empowering story could take place almost anywhere. When our online selves have more recognizable contours than our offline identities, we can learn the most about ourselves just as Ida did – when we step away from the keyboard.
