Boogie With You
A young man ends up in the living room of a middle-aged woman whom he has met at a bar after closing. The very drunk woman gives an incoherent speech on feminism, Norwegian oil and global solidarity. She does not offend the Norwegian-ethnic man when she points out their common destiny as the oppressed where she is a woman and he is black.
