The Promised Land
Nikolaj Arcel / DK, 2023 / 127 min.
Mads Mikkelsen plays an army captain founding a colony in the name of the Danish king in inhospitable 18th-century Jutland – a local chieftain declares war on him. Nikolaj Arcel’s western-style epic is a monumental, layered portrait of a man riven with contradictions.
Denmark, 1755. Army captain Ludvig Kahlen is preparing to build a colony on the bare, barren heaths and fens of Jutland, aiming to bring prosperity to a region that is home to bandits and serfs.
