Synopsis:

Gone with the Woman is the story of He, a male who hasn't even got a name. And, without him fully grasping how it comes about, his life is invaded by a woman. From this point on, He struggles to tackle the situation; He could try to throw out the invader, or try to adjust to the circumstances. He opts for the second alternative, and decides to fall deeply in love. As He himself puts it: I will start already by tomorrow. A sincere, although somewhat naive project. But she already has this little grip on him, she is a small step ahead. And He is behind her. Only a few seconds, a few lines, but still behind - in his own life. He passes from being invaded to being in love to being left behind. And exactly when He is about to forget her - she returns. The film tells the story of a man who is finally forced to decide how he is going to live his own life - and this is the woman's merit.

A nameless bachelor finds his life overtaken by a chatty female in Elling director Peter Næss's wry meditation on modern romance. The protagonist (Trond Fausa Aurvåg) is a lethargic man who maintains his harmonious existence by working during the day, and staring at his apartment walls by night. One day, seemingly out of nowhere, the reserved bachelor finds his life invaded by mysterious redhead Marianne (Marian Saastad Ottesen). A talkative woman who seems to be able to speak ad nauseam about any topic that pops into her head, Marianne continues to chatter as her exhausted partner in conversation slowly drifts off into dreamland. When he awakens to find Marianne making a soulful confession about a childhood trauma, his fate is sealed by his genuine sympathy. The following day, Marianne returns with a dozen boxes and a rather substantial yellow dresser.

A woman moves into a young man's home and starts to run his life - a process that makes him fall hopelessly in love with her.
