Strange genre-crossing Danish film, which switches between philosophical considerations (the meaning of events and the chain of causality in particular), slapstick comedy, violent action thriller, parent-child relationships...and that's not even all of it. A Danish special forces veteran serving in what looks like Afghanistan hears that his wife has died in an apparently meaningless subway accident, but a geeky statistician who was present appears to tell him that it was not an accident after all. With the help of the statistician and his even more geeky friends the veteran seeks to take revenge on those he believes responsible...
It's not really possible to tell write any more without spoiling this film, and it's really worth watching. Despite the violence it's really thoughtful and interesting.
Watched via informal distribution.
