Salmer fra kjøkkenet

The audience's emotional response to 'Salmer fra kjøkkenet' is primarily shaped by its unique blend of dry comedy and quiet drama. **Humor** is a dominant emotion, stemming from the absurd premise of silent observers in kitchens and the subtle, often awkward, human interactions (or lack thereof). This is balanced by a strong sense of **Melancholy**, evoked by the film's contemplative pace, the post-war setting, and the underlying theme of human isolation and unspoken longing for connection. **Empathy** is high, as viewers feel for both the solitary male subjects and the equally isolated, rule-bound researchers. **Curiosity** is also a key emotion, driven by the unusual experiment and the anticipation of how the characters will navigate this peculiar situation. Underlying these are feelings of **Joy** and **Happiness** from the film's gentle charm and moments of warmth, alongside a touch of **Nostalgia** for the depicted era.
