“Oslo, August 31st,” one day in the life of one man in the capital of Norway, begins with a litany of voices expressing their feelings about the city.

“I don’t remember Oslo as such. It’s people I remember,” one says. As in his debut, “Reprise,” Norwegian director Joachim Trier communicates universal truths in his second film. For many people, life isn’t so much about where one lives or what one does; meaning ultimately comes from the relationships amassed and discarded throughout.
