In 18th century Denmark, Captain Ludvig Kahlen (Mads Mikkelsen) - a proud, ambitious, but impoverished war hero -- sets out to tame a vast, uninhabitable land on which seemingly nothing can grow. He seeks to start farming crops, build a colony in the name of the King, and gain a noble title for himself. This beautiful but forbidding area also happens to be under the rule of the merciless Frederik De Schinkel, a preening nobleman who realizes the threat Kahlen represents to his power. Struggling against the elements and local brigands, Kahlen is joined by a couple who have fled the clutches of the rapacious De Schinkel. As this group of misfits begins to build a small community in this inhospitable place, De Schinkel swears vengeance, and the confrontation between him and Kahlen promises to be as violent and intense as these two men.
Starring Mads Mikkelsen, Amanda Collin, Gustav Lindh, Melina Hagberg

Mads is in it, so I'm watching it.
Yes indeed!
Yep!!
same 🫶🏻
Go for it.. masterpiece ❤
summary
Things rarely turn out the way we imagined they would, Ludvig.
ME TOO ! 😊
I always keep my eyes peeled for any movie with Mads Mikkelson. He brings so much power and honesty to his characters, that it is always a great experience to see his films.
Me too. He is a terrific actor!
Is he replacing Robert Duval as my top "low key" bests....? maybe.... maybe
He was great in Flame and citron.
ME TOO IM OBSESSED WITH HIM HIS ACTING HIS WHOLE DEMEANOR
Saw this at the Chicago Film Festival at the Gene Siskel center. Very small theater, not the biggest showing either. And holy shit. I was floored by this movie. It felt so real, every moment of it. I went through a range of every emotion up until the end. May be my favorite of the year, a must watch.
Thank you!
Looks really interesting! I love Mads. Is it "woke" though? it seems the type of movie to have all kinds of toxic anti-western propaganda in it...
@@randalthor6872 There's a clip on youtube of a "journalist" who ask Mads about the lack of diversity in the movie because there's so many white people in it, and Mads just laughs at him, i doubt it is woke.
It’s a historical drama, how is it toxic anti-western. It is based on a true story of a battle for power and land in Denmark. And if you read the interview re:wokism, while they didn’t do a good job of it, what the reporter was trying to get at is that different countries are held to different standards when it comes to the Academy evaluating films on diversity. Parasite with an all-Asian cast was accepted as entry for best picture while The Promised Land being Nordic wouldn’t qualify so it had to submit for best International Picture. So the journalist was more questioning the academy’s approach to diversity and Mads doesn’t criticize the academy but addresses the diversity issue (I.e. Denmark didn’t really have people of colour back then).
@@graysheep47 I hope not. But I have to ask these days. So many cucked foreign movies these days :(
Mads has such an electrifying screen presence, he is so enjoyable to watch in everything i have ever seen him in
After so long in Denmark, no matter how much I learn, Danish always proves to me that it is one step ahead of my comprehension.
Its just meaningless guttural sounds.
Don't worry, I'm right there with you as a Norwegian who shares almost the entire vocabulary lol
@@Loffeleif When I went to Norway, I found it easier to understand even though I was studying Danish and never studied Norwegian!
@@memr5690 Because Norwegian pronouciation is clear and straight forward at least in Oslo. Once you know the vocabulary, I'm not surprised you understand us more
@@Loffeleif
Yeah, well.. Norwegian isn't far from what the Swedish chef from Muppet show sounds like either ;-)
Things rarely turn out the way we imagined they would.
Madd Mikkelsen is a pure gem. Pereviously Another round now the promised land (definitely oscar ). He is the actor one who never disappoints u.
mads or cillian ? hmmm tough
@@trauty666 Cillian is great but mads is also no less.. As a movie lover I think they both should get.. but promised land is outside film n Oppenheimer is US film so it is clear who is gonna be a winner
Hoping this movie does well internationally! It's a grim, heavy and cruel movie in every aspect, but I think a necessary eye-opener for many audiences. It's a good reality check just how difficult and socially unequal conditions prevailed in the Nordics just a few centuries ago.
"It's a good reality check just how difficult and socially unequal conditions prevailed in the Nordics just a few centuries ago." as opposed... to the rest of the world? lol
It's a very good thing that we're importing lots and lots of people who will ensure those grim times will come back before you know it.
@@praetor47 Probably meant that the change has been biggest in those countries and yes, to emphasize that the way things are wasn't always so and not that long ago even the Nordics were just as bad as everywhere else.
@@praetor47 yes. the Nordic lands were under nobles who constrained their kings (and yet those same kings thought of themselves as crowned by God...) and then lorded it over the peasants and other classes. compare this to England where (at least for the English) a constitutional monarchy kept a healthy tension between king and parliament so that the king could not rule as a despot nor could parliament rule as an oligarchy. If anything things have gotten worse in the modern world as most state and national legislatures now rule like oligarchies "in the name of the people" they know nothing about nor care about. we need a few kings to come back and check the modern nobility we call elected officials. balance.
Mads is one of the greatest actors ever
Shufff. I thought mads gonna play an israeli settler role who murders children because God told him to
I watched this movie last week. I was only person in the theater for the 9:30 PM showing. I was mesmerized by this film and believe that this movie is a pure masterpiece. Absolutely phenomenal!
That was us last night. The only ones in the theater at a 9:30 showing.
It doesn't seem to be showing in American theaters, unfortunately. Where did you see it?
I saw it in Houston Texas at the AMC in the theater district downtown. They only had one showing per day, in a city of at least 20 theaters.
@@colorsforhealing Jealous. Was supposed to go see it for my birthday.
This looks fantastic! Mads is an amazing actor.
Shufff. I thought mads gonna play an israeli settler role who murders children because God told him to
Mads is such an underrated actor. He's so good.
He’s not underrated at all. People need to stop saying “so and so is underrated”when they have won multiple awards and have Oscar nominations.
@@djturbine7565 he needs more recognition dude.
@@dudove1Not sure you know the meaning of the word, he's got plenty of recognition and is almost universally praised for being a great actors
@@djturbine7565 agreed. People are just babbling nonsense half the time. Same way we throw the word genius around. Words are just losing their meanings while some folks reach to the top shelf for effect, so what they're saying will sound more interesting than it is.
01:06 that scream is just haunting
Best film of 2023 ...great writing directing and acting ...a masterclass in acting by Mads...this film is like a light midst the growing gloom!
What a awesome film.... And what a brilliant performance by the little girl Ann-May-Mouse (Melina Hagberg). ❤
Looks good, very good!
So far, I watched every Mads movie, all good!
The man is a legend!
What is your favorite of his films? I still love Pusher 2 and The Hunt.
I really liked it
I got to see it once at a small festival and I can’t wait to see it again and eventually get the dvd when it’s released.
8.5/10 the best 2023 film I've seen yet.
Excellent stuff, a breath of fresh air amongst all the, well you know, need I say? Don't read the reviews, just watch and decide for yourself.
As usual Mads puts on an amazing performance, i'll pretty much watch anything he's in and he always delivers.
I'm absolutely Mad for Mads!
.............this is what authentic narrative and story telling looks like, no-bullshit ESG narrative. Congratulations.
One Of The Greatest Actors Of All Time.
I love Mads Mikkelsen. So glad he's been in more and more good movies
I love the subtitles and how they keep it real and authentic.
Mads, one of my favorite actors. Don't even mind the subtitles 👍
Yeah, he's great. And l like the subtitles, otherwise l wouldn't understand what they are saying 😂
The movie does a very good job handling generic from other movies and making them unique and special with the storytelling of Nikolaj Arcel, Anders Thomas Jensen, and Ida Jessen, and the direction of Nikolaj Arcel it makes a fulfilling and satisfying emotional viewing experience.
Mads is my favorite actor. If he’s in it, it’s got to be good!
Mikkelsen sure knows how to chose his films... Awesome!!
Isn't the type of movies i usually watch but i'll watch it just for Mads!!!!!
Mads is such an underrated actor.
literally everyone loves this guy
I need to remember to go see this film. Hopefully it gets a huge theater release.
Mads Mikkelsen is a great actor
Just watched it a couple of days ago and man what a wild ride it was... It is worth watching and I highly recommend it. It is as real as it gets
This was such a great movie and there so much that needs to be decomposed. All my emotions were triggered at one point or another, be it love, hate, sympathy, excitement, surprise, the list goes on. The childs story made me cry (with sadness and love), and the ending was just the best. Really feel like breaking it down and taking about it, but don't wanna spoil it for those who haven't watched it yet. Amazing movie❤❤❤ definitely made it to my favorite movies playlist😊
This looks gorgeous. The Scandanavians do it again.
Grateful there’s subtitles, I can’t understand that language. But damn that looks like a really good movie 🎥!!! I am definitely gonna have to watch that, almost has kind of like an American type of western feel but the European version. That guy is a real great actor, I liked him play Hannibal on the tv show & a guy looking to get rescued in the artic somewhere while saving a rescue helicopter pilot at the same time.
Looks like a film which tells a great story and takes seriously the depiction of a historical time and place. Looking forward to it.
Yes, definitely.
Will watch.
Mads Mikkelsen is a legend !
AWESOME MOVIE! When you gain more than you bargain for while chasing a dream, you're willing to sacrifice the dream.
One of the best movies. Really Danish movies r treat to watch sometimes
Mads, Guy Pearce underrated actors
As a German, whenever I hear Danish i think i understand the first half of the sentence, then the end of the sentence is just blääppüüüüüstööö like whales talking to each other.
It's because Danish has vastly more vowels and altering vowel sounds compared to other neighboring languages, so while written Danish may be fairly easy to decipher, especially for other Scandinavians, then spoken Danish is very difficult to learn also for Danish children and other Scandinavians.
On the other hand, English is then easy-peasy to learn for a Dane, because we share the same grammar structure and around 900 every-day words, due to the Danish Viking invasion and settlement in the Danelaw. Ironically, it was the "pillaging" Danish Vikings who also introduced the word law itself and the concept of a jury to the English.
Put Mads in a film starring at a wall for 90min and it will be Oscar winning. The man is a legend!
Every movie with Mikkelsen is a great one in my opinion. He is just a master of acting
Intriguing. Amazing cinematography.
i really love the acting of mads. He has something unique to him!
Incredible film. The pacing is perfect. Entertaining, fulfilling, has everything you need. My new favorite movie.
I watched this at VIFF, It became my favorite non-english film of 2023.
Hannibal goes back in time 😂
This man...he can sold me any movie.
He is way underrated in HW, but I love the fact that he does not care. Also I never tought that somebody can show me Hannibal's character and get the same quality az the second movie.
The first was in the 80's with Brain Cox and William Petersen in Manhunter; a lot of people did not know this, but Hopkins actually was not the first actor who play'd it. :)
You had me at Mads. Damn, this looks epic. Good to see Arcel getting back to it.
Fantastic movie. Excellent performances and a deeply moving story of perseverance and found family.
It's been a fantastic year for cinema so far and it's only February.
I loved it, a historical and biographical film full of feelings. A heartbreaking story of a cruel and classist Denmark, which reveals how social classes divide us and bring out the worst in human beings. A character who does not allow himself to be intimidated and undertakes a battle so unequal that he will put not only his life at risk, but also the family of marginalized people that has formed around him. Ludvig Kahlen is an outcast, a bastard who longs for a noble title, a title that is far from giving him happiness and, above all, dignity. A Mads Mikkelsen who perfectly embodies a man devastated by poverty, misunderstanding and disdain for a solitary life. A man who only hopes to live his dream...serve the king!
How did this epic masterpiece not win an Oscar for Best Foreign film?? A 18th century period piece that is as close to perfect and entertaining as a film can get!
till the ground is allegory, ground means adam, tilling is cultivating the souls, working on the soul our whole life, cain the rebellious guy built civilization...
One of my favourite actors. Love Mads!
this looks really good but I always struggle with subtitles and feel like I'm missing the performances.
Mads has been one of my favorite actors for a long time. Would love to see him play Doctor Doom. I feel he'd bring the needed gravitas to the character.
Mads Mikkelson is the goat.
Oh look, a movie actually worth watching. Havent come across one of these guys here in America for years.
Man, the modern adaptation of The Emperors New Groove looks wild
Yes absolutely a must watch 💯
Once again, the Nordic region provides performances, scripts and visuals so far beyond anything produced by Tinseltown.
Is this streaming?
I can’t explain what this actor has, but as long he has it, I watch his movies.
We still have hope we still have art and cinema.
Such a good actor.
This is the best movie I've ever seen.
Flame and Citreon still my favorite Mads film.
Not in any theaters near me. Put it on streaming.
Just watched this movie! This is a masterpiece!
Esta en alguna plataforma
He is awesome. I'll watch anything he is in. His facial expressions and his eyes are magical. He can tell a story with one look. Also he is gorgeous. I wish they would cast him as James Bond.
It would be first actor ever who played the villain and then James Bond himself 😅
@@peaceofiona9198 ... Well, can we at least appreciate the Mr. White Spectre villain (Jesper Christensen) who got to survive 3 Bond movies without actually being killed by Bond, but ironically killing off fellow Dane villain actor Mads Mikkelsen in Casino Royal. The only Danish actor who has been mentioned abroad as being suitable as a new bond is be Claes Bang (The Northman and as Count Dracula in the 2020 TV series Dracula).
Looks great, but man, you gotta love that over used element of looping a chopping or ticking sound from the movie and synching it with the trailer's score.
One of my fav actors
Mads Mikkelsen & Amanda Collin ? I can barely wait !
I’m a simple man. I see Mads Mikkelsen, I watch it.
My languages are Spanish & English but Danish & Swedish are languages I wish were native to me. Their people & countries seem so easy going & the movies are always fire.
Cinematography 😭🔥
no matter the language, mads is in it. mads. all hail mads. im watching it
Honestly… Just seen it. Hollywood move over. This film is a belter. Amazing 5/5
I always like a movie where you can feel this really happened. We are watching something fake actors playing dress up but the gravity of the situation is portrayed in such a way you the viewer is transported to said time.
where i can watch it guys
Great movie, showing what is important in life. It is worth to see
Superb actor!
You had me at Mads Mikkelsen
Just watched it and this is a great movie
I wanna see him in gaming projects. He looked great in death stranding.
I am in Thailand. How I can see this movie ?
Great movie
Great actor
It has mads Mikkelsen, im in!!!
For the English speakers: yes he also mumbles in his native Danish /s
whenever I see Mads Mikkelsen I know its good cinema
Looks grand!
Sound track amazing 👏

@@JeanMichelKillerDu92It’s “Remember when we met the devil?” by Dan Romer.

life aint always sunshine and rainbows
Hey, trailer producers! Save yourselves a bunch of time and money, and just put out a one-line press release: "Mads Mikkelsen is in this". Job done.
Yup.
ESPECTACULAR
