Siri Hustvedt - Dance around the self
Where: Trondheim Kino
Young, curious, and full of determination, Siri Hustvedt left her Norwegian-American parents and her home in Minnesota in 1978 and threw herself into the vibrant life of New York. In search of the protagonist for her first novel, she embarked on a journey that would not only make her a writer, but one of the most important voices in contemporary American literature.
The film looks far beyond Siri Hustvedt’s life, showcasing the defiant creativity of artists she feels a kinship with and draws inspiration from. At the same time, it tells the story of her husband, Paul Auster, and the love story of the legendary Brooklyn literary couple. As the two reflect on identity and the power of words, the harsh realities of life intrude: Paul becomes seriously ill.
Siri Hustvedt – Dancing Around the Self is a powerful portrait of an extraordinary artist who speaks openly about her happiest moments, her fears, and her rich body of work.
Directed by Sabine Lidl, the documentary premiered in the Panorama section at the 2026 Berlin International Film Festival and later screened at CPH:DOX. It received the Best Documentary award at Germany’s national film awards, the Deutscher Filmpreis.

Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair
Where: Cinemateket in Trondheim
Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair combines Volume 1 and Volume 2 into one epic – presented exactly as the director originally intended when he wrote the screenplay. This version also includes a new, previously unseen anime sequence.
Uma Thurman stars as The Bride. She is left for dead after her former boss and lover, Bill, attacks her during her wedding preparations, shoots her in the head, and steals her unborn child.
To complete her bloody quest for revenge, she must track down and kill the four surviving members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad before finally confronting Bill.
With its epic scope, relentless action, and iconic style, Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair stands as one of cinema’s ultimate and definitive revenge stories – now finally presented in its full 4-hour-and-35-minute version, including a 15-minute intermission as Tarantino intended.
