After the Wedding

Drama124 min

Jacob Petersen runs an orphanage in India and is desperate for money to keep it open when a wealthy Danish businessman invites him to Copenhagen with the promise of a major donation. Mads Mikkelsen is Jacob, who arrives expecting a financial negotiation and instead finds himself pulled into the businessman’s family orbit, including a wedding he hadn’t planned to attend. Opposite him, Rolf Lassgård is the donor whose offer comes with personal conditions, as the trip to Denmark opens onto a family secret that shifts the stakes far beyond fundraising.
