Kærlighedens Komedie is a comedy by Henrik Ibsen. As result of being branded an "immoral" work in the press, the Christiania Theatre would not dare to stage it at first.
Two students - Falk and Lind - are staying at the country house of Mrs. Halm, romancing her two daughters Anna and Svanhild. Lind has ambitions to be a missionary, Falk a great poet. Falk criticises bourgeois society in his verse and insists that we live in the passionate moment. Lind's proposal of marriage to Anna is accepted, but Svanhild rejects the chance to become Falk's muse, as poetry is merely writing, and he can do that on his own and without really risking himself for his beliefs.
