História de amor em Copenhague

This film beautifully captures the deep and raw emotions of a woman trying to conceive with her boyfriend.

The writer does an exceptional job .-how he shows the hope, the heartbreak, and the silent pain that many women face when they can't have a baby. It's a reality that is often misunderstood, and the film brings it to life with authenticity and depth.

The moments of disappointment, the loneliness, and the unspoken sorrow are portrayed with such sincerity that it's impossible not to feel her pain. The film reminds us that no one can truly understand what a woman goes through in such a situation unless they have lived it themselves.

Despite the struggles at the end, the most touching part is the unwavering love and support from her boyfriend. His kindness and patience shine through, proving that true love isn't just about sharing joy but also about standing together in the hardest times. His gestures of support bring warmth to the story, making it a tale of resilience, love, and understanding.

Overall, this film is a deeply moving experience. It's not just about the desire for motherhood but about the emotional strength it takes to face disappointment and the power of love to heal. A must-watch for anyone who appreciates stories that are both heart-wrenching and hopeful.

This movie, about a successful writer and her charming single father partner who struggle with fertility issues, is a good drama movie!

The plot is relatively simple and somewhat predictable, and the story may not appeal to everyone. Aside from its climax, it generally delivers when it counts, reaching the potential of its highlights. The acting is mostly strong, further elevated by effective cinematography and sound. Some moments with the protagonist, Mia, might come across as unnecessarily childish, but I assume they are primarily intended for entertainment.

This movie is an engaging drama with strong performances, effective visuals, and a heartfelt narrative, despite its predictability and occasional childish moments.

A Copenhagen Love Story--simply titled Sult (Hunger) in Danish--offers up a fine performance by Rosailnde Mynster as the author Mia, a woman desperate to have a baby, particularly after she falls in love with a curator named Emil (who has two children from a former relationship). While the movie at first glance seems to be masquerading as a rom-com, it is not: it's a brutal look at the difficulties of fertility problems and treatments and the toll all of it takes on both partners in a relationship. American viewers might not be familiar with Mynster but she's a truly fine actor--watch her in the series Badehotellet (Seaside Hotel). She's brilliant in that (in fact it's painful when her character leaves that series after a few seasons).

The Danes are culturally very open about the body and all its functions; so some of the film might seem almost jarring to the more prudish viewer. We watch Mia and Emil struggle through myriad treatments and the ups and downs of their own relationship, driven by the stress of trying to have a baby of their own. At times the viewer wants to yell "stop!" at the couple. What pregnancy would be worth this much tribulation and disappointment? On that front it is not an easy film to watch--and the film is about 15 minutes too long. The other characters are not particularly fleshed out, and the filmmakers indulge in some stereotypes in Mia's gay brother and his partner.

Still, it's worth it to watch the acting and to get the cultural picture on how the Danes handle these complex subjects.
