Actor

At first glance, Sibylle and Daniel, portrayed by Birgitte Hjort Sørensen and Mikkel Arndt, seem to lead an idyllic yet somewhat mundane family life, complete with respectable careers, a stylish apartment and two young children. One night, Daniel's ex-girlfriend Franziska, played by Julie Agnete Vang Christensen, suddenly appears. She becomes the catalyst for an explosion in what turns out to be an already strained relationship between Daniel and Sibylle, whose children have long been hostages in their trench warfare. Daniel chose Sibylle over Franziska, because she was the stable and sensible choice, but perhaps he chose wrongly?

The daughter of a god, Agnes, portrayed by Asta August, descends to Earth driven by her curiosity to understand the human condition. Here, she constantly encounters individuals pondering the question: What is the purpose of life, if our pursuit of happiness and love leads to double the amount of grief? Over and over, the celestial offspring reflects, "humans are to be pitied." But, is that truly the case?

A Dream Play

Josephine Park stars as Yerma in a gripping drama about a modern woman’s all-consuming desire for a child—and the lengths she will go to in pursuit of her dream.

What do you do when you have every opportunity in life, yet your greatest wish remains unfulfilled?

Yerma is a successful city woman in full control of her life. She has never considered having children—until the day she moves into her new townhouse. Suddenly, the desire arises: there is plenty of space, after all. She persuades her partner, and together they try for years to conceive.

As their efforts prove unsuccessful, she restructures their work and private lives around her ovulation cycles. She shares intimate details of their struggle with infertility and family pressures on social media, while her partner gradually loses interest in fertility treatments—and in their relationship. Once, she had never defined her body by its biological function. Now, the deep longing for motherhood consumes her entirely, turning into an obsession.
