Ulven kommer

I will say this, after working the same job as Bjarne Henriksen in this series, I understand the situation very well. It's very difficult for the parents and for the kids. I have just seen 3 episodes so far and looking forward to the rest.

I will update my review after the seeing the complete first season. I think it looks good, the young girl plays her part perfect, I can feel her fears and pain. I can also see it in her eyes, Great talent.

This should be seen by most people, it can learn you to have a different perspective on things in the future. Great work to all involved.

A good 8/10

Nu har jeg kun set 2 afsnit. Jeg plejer normalt ikke at gå efter danske serier. Men den her fangede mig allerede ved første afsnit. Skuespilleriet, især fra børnene der er med, er rigtig godt. Historien, hvad der sker osv. er også spot on.

Kan klart anbefalde den, hvis nogen søger noget i den her stil at se.

Well, the approach and events described are intrinsic to developed countries where long documents form the basis of child welfare and people are encouraged to "detect and identify any signs of possible abuse". I am sure that in most cases the intervention from outside is needed and due, but here, in Ulven kommer, the events spin and roll in sprite of slow pace at times. The final episode is realistic as well, but seemingly contradicting the total run of events.

This above-trivial narration is elevated by strong performances of all cast, starting with Bjarne Henriksen as Lars (he is a fine actor, just remember Forbrydelsen) and Flora Ofelia Hofmann Lindahl as Holly (a pleasant teen surprise). Their dialogues, yet not long, are very intense and heartrending, and although viewers obtain clarity what was really going on, it is still intriguing to follow how the things develop and what is the result. True, the final solution is not satisfactory to everyone.

Another fine Danish series!

The most obvious engine of this drama is the uncertainty as to whether to believe the accusations that a step daughter makes against her step father. The series keeps you guessing until the last couple of episodes.

But looking deeper, there is another question posed equally effectively: what should those responsible do when such accusations surface without clear proof to make difficult decisions easy? Finding the right path must feel impossible, with the need to protect the child at war with the rights of the parents and the value of a functional family unit.

I doubt I would be up to this task and am left grateful that amongst us are admirable people willing to shoulder this burden.

This is an excellent series which I highly recommend.

A marvelous story that really has a grip on the viewer.

A child writes a concerning story and her teacher contacts the state that is removing the children from home. Bjarne Henriksen as the social worker is brilliant and the girl Holly (Flora Ofelia Hofmann Lindahl) is very trustworthy but it is the same with all the actors. It's high quality.

I doubt how much rewatching value it has and if you are not living in a country the has the same system as Denmark it might seem strange(?).
