Starring Mads Mikkelsen and Amanda Collin, THE PROMISED LAND brings viewers to 1755, on Denmark’s barren Jutland heath.

The poor soldier Ludvig Kahlen arrives with a single goal: to follow the king's call to cultivate the land and thereby achieve wealth and honor himself.

But the merciless landowner, Frederik De Schinkel, who is sole ruler of the area, believes that the heath belongs to him and not the king.

Denmark's submission to the 2024 Academy Awards.
