The official Danish selection for this year’s Academy Awards and winner of 7 Robert Awards (Danish Oscars) including Best Picture, Director, Actor, Actress and Screenplay, TERRIBLY HAPPY spins a riveting yarn about Robert Hanson (Jakob Cedergren), a Copenhagen police officer who, following a nervous breakdown, is transferred to a small provincial town to take on the mysteriously vacated marshal position and subsequently gets mixed up with a married femme fatale. Robert’s big city temperament makes it impossible for him to fit in, or understand the uncivilized, bizarre behavior displayed by the townspeople.

Quickly spiraling into an intense fable reminiscent of the Coen Brothers’ Blood Simple and No Country For Old Men, director Henrik Ruben Genz displays a unique and sometimes macabre vision of the darkest depths to which people will go to achieve a sense of security and belonging.

“Beneath the poker face of this wickedly entertaining film lurks an insinuating smirk on the verge of widening into a grin.” – Stephen Holden, New York Times

“The story’s sudden swerve into melodrama has the nightmare reality of film noir at its best.” – Mark Peikert, New York Press

“Finds the sweet spot in that realm of disturbing, unpredictable drama tinged with the blackest possible comedy...a deliciously dark and offbeat surprise.” – Marshall Fine, Hollywood & Fine
