The irony of neutrality is that you must have a formidable army to sustain it. Talk about privilege and naiveté as the aristocracy looks aghast when a foe such as Adolf Hitler comes knocking because they thought they were safe. The people attending Karl Skov’s (Jesper Christensen) anniversary party are actually incredulous when German planes drop leaflets onto their heads. They wonder how their king could just surrender as though they ever stood a chance once Hitler began moving west and they kid themselves that the war will end soon enough so things can get back to normal. To them, the Nazis are here biding time. They’ll leave once “peace” is made. That’s what happens when evil is considered mere rumor circa 1941.
Karl and his family are lying to themselves like so many others who’ve yet to fully grasp the horrors of this regime. Worse still,...

Exclusive: Finnish-Danish-Croatian co-pro is currently shooting in Croatia and Denmark.
Ambi Distribution has acquired worldwide sales rights (Scandinavia, Iceland and former Yugoslavia) to thriller The Guardian Angel, now shooting.

Steamy court intrigue, wild passion and the momentous decisions of charismatic visionaries have never had it better than this 18th Century Danish potboiler. Mads Mikkelsen (.Flame and Citroen. and .The Hunt.) plays man-of-all-seasons Johann Friedrich Struensee, the physician who befriended their hapless lunatic Danish King Christian the VII (played to the hilt by Mikkel Boe Følsgaard) and changed the world. His redoubtable lover was none other than the queen of Denmark, Caroline Mathilde (Alicia Vikander). Nobles Rantzau (Thomas Gabrielsson) and Brandt (Cyron Melville) fabricate a meeting with the naturally charismatic and hyper intelligent Struensee. Under the guise of a penile examination (yes, that is right) the two evaluate the German doctor for his ideas, leadership and ability to place them...
