Kød & Blod

Jeanette Nordahl | 2020 | 89 MINS
Denmark | Subtitles
Following the death of her mother, Ida moves in with her aunt and her grown sons. Though her aunt’s home is filled with physical tenderness and love, the family leads a violent and criminal life.

In Detail

At first, they are all very welcoming to poor Ida, who believes that their business is the large nightclub that Bodil appears to manage. But Bodil is the matriarch of a ruthless crime family whose main income is from acting as loan sharks.

Ida quickly shows them that she too has a criminal vocation, taking like a duck to water to her new task. Danish film-maker Jeanette Nordahl has served her time as a second-unit director on TV’s Borgen. Now, presenting her debut feature at Berlin, she gives us an insidiously horrible and thrilling Scandi noir of her own.
