I highly recommend The Promised Land, a new film from Denmark starring everyone’s favourite Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen. He plays a retired military veteran of low birth who asks the King’s permission to develop a piece of land long considered unsuitable for agriculture. That’s in the 18th century. As if the challenges of turning the inhospitable marshland into productive farmland weren’t enough, he has to face the fierce opposition of the wealthy and unscrupulous landowner who claims that the land in question is his. General unpleasantness ensues (to put it very mildly).
