Edvard Munch represents something different for different people: existentialist, art icon, tortured talented soul, trembling lover, or commentator on his era. In Christiania, he experiences a tingling love in anticipation of his autumn exhibition. Later, in Berlin, he launches what in art history will come to be known as the "Munch Affair", himself incredulous that something as innocent as a painting could cause such a scandal. Making a life-changing decision, he soon enters a psychiatric clinic and during the years of the occupation, he protects his works while trying to save himself.
