Series 1: 1. The Hour Draws Near
Sea levels are rising, and Denmark will soon be evacuated, but the public doesn’t know it yet.\n\nNineteen-year-old Laura lives half the time with her mother, Fanny, and half with her father, Jacob, and his new wife, Amalie. Amalie’s brother Nikolaj works for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and is among the first to learn of the evacuation. He cautions his husband, Henrik, and Jacob to sell everything and start planning for a life abroad – in secret. Henrik also feels compelled to warn his estranged brother, Peter, who refuses to listen. \n\nLaura is at school when news of the evacuation breaks. The question on everyone’s mind is: where will they go? \n\nDanish drama from acclaimed Academy Award and BAFTA-winning director Thomas Vinterberg.\n\nIn Danish with English subtitles
