A turn of the 19th century tale of a young man from a strict religious upbringing yearning to find himself while fighting his internal demons. Per Sidenius (Esben Smed) goes to Copenhagen as an engineering student with hopes of taking Denmark into the new century with plans to turn solar and wind into new energy sources. His personal conflicts cause strife professionally and romantically as he pushes those close to him away. Beautiful cinematography and with many fine performances make this a classic you won't forget.
