This Danish-language psychological drama focuses on the difficult subject of child abuse and the effects a false accusation of such a crime can bring about.
Mikkelsen plays Lucas, a man who finally gets his life in order after a tough divorce.
He now has a new girlfriend, a new job as a kindergarten teacher and is re-establishing a relationship with his son, Marcus.
But everything changes when a terrible lie is told – Lucas is a child molester.
Although false, the news quickly spreads and ignites a witch hunt, threatening to destroy the life he worked so hard to build.
