From the director of A Royal Affair comes The Promised Land, a bold new epic starring Mads Mikkelsen.

In 18th century Denmark, Captain Ludvig Kahlen (Mads Mikkelsen)—a proud, ambitious, but impoverished war hero—sets out to tame a vast, uninhabitable land on which seemingly nothing can grow. He seeks to start farming crops, build a colony in the name of the King, and gain a noble title for himself. This beautiful but forbidding area also happens to be under the rule of the merciless Frederik De Schinkel, a preening nobleman who realizes the threat Kahlen represents to his power.

Struggling against the elements and local brigands, Kahlen is joined by a couple who have fled the clutches of the rapacious De Schinkel. As this group of misfits begins to build a small community in this inhospitable place, De Schinkel swears vengeance, and the confrontation between him and Kahlen promises to be as violent and intense as these two men.

The Promised Land premiered at the 80th Venice International Film Festival, contending for the prestigious Golden Lion. The film was shortlisted for the Academy Award^® for Best International Feature Film.

“An invigoratingly savage Nordic western, The Promised Land is earthy, enjoyable stuff: an expansive, sweeping epic with hope in its heart and dirt under its nails.” —Wendy Ide, Screen Daily
