Inspired by his own childhood experiences, The Commune (2016; Denmark) is the brilliant new film by twice BAFTA-nominated director Thomas Vinterberg (Festen, The Hunt, Far from the Madding Crowd) and Thomas Lindholm, the writer of Borgen.
Denmark, the early 1970s: Erik, a successful professor of architecture, inherits a large mansion in suburban Copenhagen and decides to set up a commune with his wife, Anna, and daughter, Freja. Together they invite friends, acquaintances and strangers to live with them, creating a melting pot of left-wing ideas and new familial bonds. But when Erik begins an affair with Emma, a beautiful young student from his course, the spirit of free love that formed the foundations of the commune will threaten to bring it all tumbling down…
