About Hjemme hos William
Architect William Sommer wants to organize his life in a practical and sensible way. Yet it is falling apart. His ex-wife will not settle for a check. His new, young girlfriend has a young man in tow. William feels sick to his stomach. He numbs the pain with alcohol. He feels like doing something violent. The nice man is about to explode...
Directed by Palle Kjærulff-Schmidt, Hjemme hos William leans on a strong ensemble — Ove Sprogøe, John Wittig, Henning Moritzen — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1971.
