Never make a baker feel cornered.
Jens (Mikkel Vadsholdt) has accepted far too much for too long. Being the shy night-owl he is, he keeps to himself, but the world will not let him be. The new master baker’s quality starts slackening, and when a bunch of rebellious teenagers one day smash the window of Jens’s car, he resolutely grabs a tire changing spanner and knocks one of them down. Intoxicated by his own new unexpressed vigour, Jens comes out of his shell, but the destructive driving force leads him towards a free fall.
“A wonderful film and a valuable piece of socially conscious Nordic Noir filmmaking.” – Brian MacEvilly (Dingle International Film Festival)
Mikkel Vadsholdt has been awarded Best Male Actor at NIFF, Nordic International Film Festival 2017 (USA).
