Draget

Quiet man Thomas is a cattle farmer who leads an unchanging existence in rural Jutland. Polish seasonal workers are his only company. It may look like a lonely life, and it might be a lonely life. But there is much to do at the farm, enough to forget the calls that go unanswered and the reasons there might be for the silence.

Directed by Christian Bengtson, Draget leans on a strong ensemble — Henrik Birch, Marek Magierecki, Filip Chodzewich — 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 2019.
