The Norway film "The Pause Button of Love" is officially announced today and will be released nationwide on September 5. The "Self-Bind" version of the scheduled trailer and the "Lovely Her" version of the scheduled poster will be released simultaneously. The film won the "Four Champions" at the 15th Beijing International Film Festival, winning four heavyweight awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenwriter, and Best Actress. It was strongly recommended by the "Temple of Heaven Award" jury as a "respectable work". After that, the film was screened at the 27th Shanghai International Film Festival with great fame. Once it went on sale, it sold out many games and was hard to get a ticket. It received unanimous praise from film critics and audiences, and was praised as "a must-miss annual masterpiece in 2025."
The movie "The Pause Button of Love" was written and directed by Liliya Ingolfsdottir. It tells the story of Maria (Helga Gulen), who meets her favorite partner at a party after ending a relationship. Sigmund (Odgel Touney), the two quickly fall in love and enter marriage. However, the marriage failed to overcome the test of the seven-year itch, and Maria also struggled in her work and life. Faced with her emotional dilemma, she tried her best to recover and persuaded Sigmund to accept marriage counseling together in an attempt to bridge the emotional gap. In the process, Maria began to re-examine her life...
From longing to collapse, how can she break through the cocoon and be reborn after being trapped?
In the "Self-Binding" version of the trailer, Maria's marriage hit the rocks. She repeatedly broke down emotionally while trying to save her husband, blaming herself for all problems in her life. Faced with a series of problems such as how to continue life, how to continue marriage, and how to get along with the family, Maria's eyes were full of helplessness and confusion.
On the "Lovely She" version of the regular poster released simultaneously, Maria and her husband hugged each other tightly, their eyes full of longing for the future and deep affection for each other. However, no one could have imagined why they, who once loved each other deeply, would be at odds, and what kind of dilemma did Maria fall into before she became hysterical?
The movie "Pause Button for Love" does not blame the dilemma of intimate relationships on the fault of one party, but explores in depth the invisible shackles women bear in the social division of labor and their difficult choices between self-worth and family responsibilities. Through the film, many viewers have more profound thoughts on women's plight in the family and society.
There are countless praises at home and abroad, and it is a must-see masterpiece in 2025!
The movie "Pause Button of Love" did not rely on big data analysis to create, but used sincerity and professionalism to perfectly present emotions through the language of the movie. The film takes an intimate relationship on the verge of breaking as an incision and presents self-growth in emotional seesaw from a restrained and delicate female perspective. It has won rave reviews in major international film festivals and exhibitions, with Rotten Tomatoes receiving a favorable rating of 100%.
Many viewers who have seen films at film festivals and exhibitions said that they have seen themselves through films. The plight of women in the film is visually presented, from the intergenerational scars of mother and daughter in native families to self-exploration in marriage, which profoundly demonstrates women's sense of unworthiness and desire for love. Many viewers said that through the film's realism, they saw the plight of women in life, and the film also provided a self-help idea and encouraged people to find the possibility of self-redemption.
The movie "Pause Button of Love" will lead the audience through an emotional roller coaster full of sweetness, disputes, memories and silence, enter the real dilemma of contemporary women, face up to self, intimate relationships and the fragmentation and healing of social situations, and work with the movie.
