While the VERY last scene, of HENRIK in his Bath-robe, leaves one pondering about the message or intent..., this story's climatic build-up is -both- truthful and believable ! At first, tantalizing and intriguing for the first twenty minutes, the tension sets-in whence the councilors/lawyer's, is taken aback by HENRIK's attitude and questions ...; meanwhile we have the incredible interventions of (Sofie Grabol) NINA as a loving/warm/tender/sexually satisfied wife and mother ...; the (daughter's) STINE, mostly still-life presence and expressions are just incredible and beyond words ...! Mr. TROELS LYBY's presence & rendition is just extreme or too natural, Mrs. SOFIE GRABOL is just too much right as a Wife and Mother ... as well as a shining-out presence ... while either direction and photography are unquestionably good.

Shortly-put, this is {another} of a very limited number of quality films, with subject or renewing script's visualization ! P.S.: Sofie Grabol is a gorgeous and incredibly good actress. ... as proved with her lead in the recent "The Killing" three Danish TV's series ... !

Very good movie, it blew me away to be honest. Once again, the quality of Scandinavian movies and series surpasses everything else.

The film is very well told and edited, and the way of filming seemed most wonderful to me. You don't see the daughter in the movie, Stine, until quite late, which increases the tension when you see her for the first time. We experience everything from the fathers perspective, Henrik. It gets to the point that our hearts beat with him and what he feels, very strong. Is he guilty or innocent?

The main actors, Troels Lyby and Sofie Grâbol, are absolutely convincing, very good actors, and I loved seeing this actress again, unforgettable in the series 'The Killing', don't miss this one.

The role of the mother, the actress Sofie G, Nina in the movie, was quite disturbing for me, a weird woman, and she also brings sweets to her husband in prison, I guess is a form of insecurity and not knowing what to do after such a strong accusation. But I am only guessing. She didn't strike me as a woman with maternal capabilities. This fact increases the tension and suspense even more during the whole process.

I recommend it without a doubt, very strong psychologically, it goes to the point and is very realistic. The tension increases every second until the very end, the most unexpected and satisfying in my opinion. Great movie!

This movie in the same boat as JAGTEN and THE CELEBRATON films. I have to say that the acting is very well made, the picture quality was great. I was stoked for the most of the movie. However, the movie is confusing at times; It showcases sometimes random scenes that have nothing to do with the scene which is going on.

Another problem i kinda have is that our victim has zero buildup. We know nothing about her, except her trauma, and that she lied a lot. That's all we know. I think what could of helped a bit was some kind of depth (But then again THE CELEBRATION didn't have much buildup of the victims either).

This whole movie is a puzzle that you have to solve if the father is guilty or not? This movie and JAGTEN show very well how adults (Complete adults over 25), end up if they are accused of such horrific crime. This is the MURDER of the SOUL.

I have to be honest, i have believed that the father is guilty at the start, because he just came off as heartless. The only character that is extremely likeable is the Mother. She truly is a very likeable character that is trying her best to love her husband, but have her daughter with them. I felt horrible for her.

Yes i can recommend this movie it was very well executed. However it does get difficult to follow at times. If you want some similar films too; Go watch JAGTEN and CELEBRATION.

If Sofie Gråbøl gets any better than in this movie, it's scary!! I hope for her that she can keep on improving her acting, but I fear that she will be on a "Mission Impossible" if she has to do better than this performance. She is simply outstanding, and she singlehandedly saves the movie, when the script runs away with it round an easy Hollywood corner, that makes everything fit too well into script-mathematics. Just watched the extra material on DVD and was a bit embarrassed on behalf of director Jacob Thuesen, when after meeting the press at The Berlinale (Film Festival) he seemed surprised, that his audience wanted to talk about the subject of the film (incest), rather than the "filmtechnical matters" (which he had hoped for). Proves to me, that this was another film where the filmmakers aim for the perfect effective drama, rather than caring for what is on their mind and heart. Damn effective though - not least through the first 4/5 of the movie.

If a kid accuses an adult of having done inappropriate things to her (in this case it is her, could also be him) .. well that adult is in quite some trouble. Not just in the justice system, but even if he gets a not guilty verdict ... but lets not get ahead of ourselves.

This has to be decided by the courts and there are things that do suggest what might be the truth behind it all. A very heavy drama, that does a really good job with the theme it chose to depict and have as central subject matter. Great actors and great twists and turns, even if you yourself may be aware of the "truth" early on (there is only one of two choices so guessing right is not really saying anything) ...
