Additional InformationA child's lie threatens to destroy the life of a divorced daycare worker attempting to reconnect with his teenage son in this emotionally-charged drama from director Thomas Vinterberg (THE CELEBRATION, SUBMARINO). In the wake of a fractured marriage, 40-year-old Lucas (Mads Mikkelsen) gets a new girlfriend and a new job in a daycare centre while fighting to win custody of his teenage son. Lucas is a respected figure in his close-knit community, and the ids at the daycare center where he works all look up to him. When Lucas repeatedly finds young Klara (Annika Wedderkopp) roaming the streets alone as her parents engage in angry shouting matches, he becomes something of a protector to the frightened young girl, often walking her home once the arguments have died down. When Klara attempts to repay Lucas' kindness with a kiss on the lips, the shocked teacher quickly corrects her by telling her that that display of affection is not appropriate. Upset over being rebuffed by the man she so admires, Klara responds by telling the inexperienced manager of the daycare centre that she saw Lucas engaged in inappropriate activity. Before long the rumour has caught fire, and as Christmas approaches mob mentality prevails. Everyone close to Lucas, including two best friends and his son, quickly become pariahs in the community. Meanwhile, the desperate Lucas wages a losing battle to reclaim his dignity in a town that would sooner see an innocent man crucified than admit their mistake.

Frustrating for the right reasons.
This is a very good film, though the viewing experience may be frustrating in the best of ways, due to the themes. Very engaging film which tackles important issues. Acting by Mads Mikkelsen is very moving and believable which makes you care about the character and his struggle. A unique experience. Highly recommended.
