SYNOPSIS/PLOT Following a tough divorce, 40-year-old Lucas has a new girlfriend, a new job and is in the process of reestablishing his relationship with his teenage son, Marcus. But things go awry. Not a lot. Just a passing remark. A random lie. And as the snow falls and the Christmas lights are lit, the lie spreads like an invisible virus. The shock and mistrust gets out of hand, and the small community suddenly finds itself in a collective state of hysteria, while Lucas fights a lonely fight for his life and dignity.
PRO REVIEWS ----------------------------------------
"Known for his often icy and violent characters, Mikkelsen impresses here as a warm-hearted man who finds himself caught up in a situation way beyond his control" (Boyd van Hoeij: Variety)
----------------------------------------
"Thomas Vinterberg's best film since 'Festen' is an unsettling psychological drama built around a harrowing performance from Mads Mikkelsen" (David Rooney: The Hollywood Reporter)
----------------------------------------
"Immensely powerful in its invocation of the true meaning of Christian charity and its symbolism" (Philip French: The Guardian)
----------------------------------------
"Beautifully performed and tough as nails, Vinterberg's social drama could not be any more timely (...) Rating: **** (out of five)" (David Hughes: Empire)
