“An emotional and intensely focused lead performance from Trine Dyrholm carries this new movie from Danish Director Thomas Vinterberg” – Guardian<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Erik (University lecturer) and Anna (TV newscaster) inherit a large house in 1970s Copenhagen. To help pay the running costs, they recruit free thinkers to set up a commune. We watch as it takes shape, often hilariously, but when Erik falls for one of his students the housemates struggle with their beliefs and values.<\/p>\n

“A large, chaotically chattering cast, polarities of farcical humour and teariest melodrama, even a rocking-around-the-Christmas-tree singalong: All the elements of a mass heart-sweller superficially present in erstwhile Dogma 95 rebel Thomas Vinterberg’s return to Danish cinema” – Variety<\/i><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
