The 27 residents of the beautiful, tiny island of Mandø are used to severe weather and flooding, but climate change is making things worse and serious catastrophe looms.

Also screening: ’Once Upon a Time in a Forest’.

In Detail

Yet the island's last farmer, the indomitable Gregers, whose family has lived there for eight generations, hasn’t given up.

He refuses to build a life elsewhere and hopes to find a wife to manage the farm with him.

Accompanied by masterfully crafted shots of the distinctive landscape and shifting skies, ‘As the Tide Comes In' is a highly cinematic, charming and compelling portrait of a universal fate that affects us all.
