What is the plot of ‘The Promised Land’?
In 1755, the impoverished Captain Ludvig Kahlen sets out to conquer the harsh, uninhabitable Danish heath with a seemingly impossible goal: to build a colony in the name of the King. In exchange, he’ll receive a desperately desired Royal name for himself. But the sole ruler of the area, the merciless Frederik de Schinkel, arrogantly believes this land belongs to him. When de Schinkel learns that the maid Ann Barbara and her servant husband have escaped for refuge with Kahlen, the privileged and spiteful ruler swears revenge, doing everything in his power to drive the captain away. Kahlen will not be intimated and takes up the unequal battle – not only risking his life, but also the family of outsiders that has formed around him.
Mads Mikkelsen plays Ludvig Kahlen, Amanda Collin as Ann Barbara, Simon Bennebjerg as Frederik de Schinkel, Melina Hagberg as Anmai Mus, Kristine Kujath Thorp as Edel Helene, Gustav Lindh as Anton Eklund, Morten Hee Andersen as Johannes Eriksen, Thomas W. Gabrielsson as Bondo, Magnus Krepper as Hector, Søren Malling as Paulli, Morten Burian as Lauenfeldt, Jacob Lohmann as Trappaud, Olaf Højgaard as Preisler, and Felix Kramer.
‘The Promised Land’ premiered at the 80th Venice International Film Festival on August 31, 2023, competing for the Golden Lion. It was Denmark’s entry for the Best International Feature Film at the 96th Academy Awards and made it to the final 15 films on the December shortlist.
