I'm confused..but loved it..

Warning: Spoilers
This movie left me baffled at the end.

At first I must say that both Tarjei and Andrea did a great job; the casting for this movie was totally on point. I am kind of biased when it comes to Tarjei since he is one of my favorite actors ever since I've seen him in Skam and recently in Skitten sno.

When the movie started I figured Markus was the one doing the stalking, but as the story progressed it became obvious that my first impression was wrong.

I do kind of feel sorry for her considering how it ended, especially because it seems that her husband might have had a role in instigating the affair. Or at least welcomed it to end his marriage, as it was obvious from the beginning he did not show much affection to his wife.

I'm still unsure what did he mean when he told her not to tell his colleagues that she has a job. What was that all about?

In conclusion, loved the movie, loved Tarjei who was amazing as always, but I keep wondering was Anita a victim of her own weaknesses and the husband's plot to get rid of her.
