Wild Men15

Directed by Thomas Daneskov | Denmark | 2021 | 1h 42m | Danish w/ English subtitles | Starring Rasmus Bjerg, Zaki Youssef, Sofie Gråbøl, Bjørn Sundquist

In the midst of a mid-life crisis, family man Martin dons a Neanderthal-like ensemble of animal skins and flees to live high up in the Norwegian mountains. There he meets a hash smuggler, who is injured after a car accident, and the pair go on the run together. A quirky Danish black comedy that examines the painful pitfalls of modern life as well as the trappings of toxic masculinity.

Reviews

‘What makes this amiably amusing Danish comedy work is the fact that it takes its hapless protagonist almost as seriously as he takes himself.’
★★★★
Wendy Ide, The Observer
