Synopsis

Strange things are happening in the underbelly of a Danish hospital, where the ghost of a young girl cries in the elevator shaft, a phantom ambulance appears nightly, and secret societies meet in the basement. Tensions rise among staff, oblivious to the dark force awakening beneath the hospital.

Our take

Strange things are happening in the underbelly of a Danish hospital in Lars von Trier’s long unavailable, cult TV phenomenon. Masterfully harmonizing mordant humor and poignant pathos, The Kingdom I is a wickedly funny occult mystery. Let the battle between good and evil commence!
