Karpe Diem is to Norway what Nik&Jay is to Danish suburbs – and then some. The Norwegian rap duo – Aben and Kjeften – are a phenomenon that completely sold out three concerts at Oslo Spektrum, armed with an arsenal of earworms, political wit, disarming self-irony, a sea of inflatable pink pigs and an abundance of cameras that captured it all. Now, the experience is brought to the big screen in a massive concert film that unites live performance with a fictional story, which with wild and dark surrealism takes us through the whole of Karpe’s story. Balancing, like the band itself, between reality and madness, ingenuity and sharp beats, and with full-blown entertainment.
