Hvor kragerne vender

Little danish survival story, about how to survive farmville, where the tractorhumping and cowshoveling is bloodborne, and where the rednecks good old traditional jantelov where the first commandment says''youre nothing'' along with 9 more, that has ruined the main caracters ghildhood and age coming. Moving to the city becomming a liberal freestyler, vegan and other open sexual relationships, long hair cut short, and dressing more he than she, make the thin red line when she returns to jutland for her brothers wedding.

Its a film with the clashes of the giants, and where the table is set and adjusted, merely revengefilled and at moments rather embarrasing. Allthough its a drama it has a mouthful of comedy, and a lot of serious elements that may feel reckognizabel to many, the grumpy old man have had it all, well acted, good cast, unique settings but couldve had some more gunpowder in the end. There are possibilities that a sequel will come, and that ill look forward to. A recommend from the haystack...

The homecoming of a writer who fled country life after a traumatic childhood turns into a gentle comedy that reflects on memories, traumas and the clash between country and city life . Although this part does not avoid clichés (urban characters are vegetarians and idiots, while farmers are rude but with a good heart), it works in the most personal aspects, in the need to leave the past behind and face the present without regrets.

A beautifully written, directed, lighted movie about the modern conflict in Denmark. The childhood in the farm, vs the new life in the city and memories arising as soon as you visit home. Very relatable, a great work.

If you have have experienced the same as the main character, you will find this movie amazing! If you have been a bully in school, if you are a cultur-radicale who haven't grasped the obvious fake of your ridiculous life or if you never have had conflicts with your parents, you will find it a bore!

First of all, none of the characters are wholly likeable. If you watch it waiting for a hero, you'll be severely frustrated. That's not to say all the characters are bad, but that they're dynamic. The film masterfully unfurls the layers of the characters overtime in a way that's more true to life than a lot of American cinema - (that is, usually having one clear good character and one clear villain by the climax).

Themes: identity, change, bullying, jealousy and belonging.

Although deliberately cringey at times, I really enjoyed watching this film. Well cast, well written, well shot.
