Well, we already knew that Thomas Vinterberg‘s latest project The Hunt is quite disturbing one. But we never knew exactly how much.
Now, when we have two new clips from the whole thing – the mystery is finally solved, this definitely looks like a very tough-to-watch drama. But we still recommend you to check out the rest of this report…
Written and directed by Vinterberg, this movie stars great Mads Mikkelsen as a former school teacher named Lucas, who has been forced to start over after a tough divorce and the loss of his job.
And just when things are starting to go his way, he gets falsely accused of molesting a kindergarten age student. That’s more than enough to throw the small community into a collective state of hysteria.
The lie is spreading and Lucas is forced to fight a lonely fight for his life and dignity, and that’s exactly the point with The Hunt.
Because the movie will definitely show us how a lie becomes the truth when gossip, doubt and malice are allowed to flourish and ignite a witch-hunt that soon threatens to destroy an innocent man’s life.
Beside Mikkelsen, The Hunt also stars Thomas Bo Larsen, Annika Wedderkopp, Lasse Fogelstrøm, Susse Wold and Anne Louise Hassing.
The movie opens in UK tomorrow, and at this moment – still no words about the US release date.
Let us know what you think about the movie and stay tuned!
