(Denmark/Germany/2023—directed by Nikolaj Arcel)
In 1755, the impoverished Captain Ludvig Kahlen (Mads Mikkelsen) sets out to conquer an uninhabitable land with an impossible goal; to cultivate crops and build a colony for the King in exchange for a desperately desired royal name for himself. But the sole ruler of the area, the merciless Frederik De Schinkel, determinedly believes this territory belongs to him.
When De Schinkel learns that a recently escaped couple in his employ has taken refuge with Kahlen, the ruler swears to do everything in his power to drive the captain away. Mikkelsen’s delicate, commanding performance is the epicenter of this satisfying and visually rich adventure.
Denmark’s submission to the 2024 Academy Awards®. In Danish with English subtitles. (127 min.)
