In a small residential neighborhood in Iceland, a newcomer is intriguing her neighbors: a Danish woman has moved into the building, and her almost military discipline is causing quite a stir...
The creator of Woman at War (2018), Benedikt Erlingsson, returns with a new heroine who is as endearing as she is belligerent: after a remarkable career in the Danish secret service, Ditte Jensen (played by Trine Dyrholm) struggles to adapt to her new life as a retired agent. Now living in Iceland, her old reflexes and keen sense of justice disrupt the peaceful and quiet existence of her new neighborhood for better, but also perhaps for worse... Skillfully blending satire and thriller, The Danish Woman makes you laugh as much as it makes you think: does the end really justify the means?
