Description
Danish drama co-written and directed by Thomas Vinterberg.
Wealthy businessman Helge Klingenfeldt (Henning Moritzen) and his wife Else (Birthe Neumann) throw a family party to celebrate his 60th birthday.
Eldest son Christian (Ulrich Thomsen) and daughter Helene (Paprika Steen) arrive, as does reckless younger son Michael (Thomas Bo Larsen) - in disgrace through his failure to attend his sister Linda's funeral months earlier.
Maids Pia (Trine Dyrholm) and Michelle (Therese Glahn) both hope to rekindle their old affairs with the two brothers, but their efforts prove to be in vain.
At dinner, Christian announces that both he and the late Linda were sexually abused by Helge when they were children, but is not believed.
However, while searching Linda's old room Helene discovers a suicide note from her sister which forces her to reconsider.
