Sick of Myself is a dark comedy that satirizes the human desire for attention and sympathy, focusing on a narcissistic couple engaged in a competition to outdo each other.
The film serves as a biting examination of narcissistic tendencies and the desperate need for attention in the digital age, with a particular focus on the influence of social media.
Sick of Myself has received praise from filmmakers Ari Aster and John Waters, who commend its bold and judgmental approach, captivating performances, and well-crafted dark comedy. The film is worth watching before diving into Borgli's upcoming Dream Scenario.
