Cast: Ulrich Thomsen, Mikael Persbrandt and Trine Dyrholm.
Why is it on the list?: Pairing with one of the better writers in the business, while she awaits further ops in the U.S., Biers – a master in the dramatic field will instead turn to her native Denmark and a backdrop that further expands the crushing blows found in her narratives.
Release Date/Status?: A major film festival showing – TIFF seems like the most logical.
