For 14 years, merchant Thippe has been paying child support to his dear son, although he has never seen the boy. For the sake of the family legacy, and economic certainty, Thippe decides to meet his offspring. However, something is not quite right. The so-called mother shows few signs of motherly behaviour and the kid has seemingly hit puberty a long time ago – in fact, the boy rather resembles a grown man. (Stumfilm.dk)

Reviews

Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
