Copenhagen, 1919: A young factory worker loses her job and becomes pregnant. She meets Dagmar, who runs an underground adoption agency. They form a strong bond, but her world falls apart when she discovers the shocking truth behind her work. category of the 97th Academy Awards in 2025. It is the final days of the Great War, and Karolina is barely making ends meet by working in a factory. She believes she is a widow because her husband disappeared during the war (even though Denmark was not actually involved), but she does not receive a widow’s pension because he was not declared dead. There are many things that happen in the film. and I do not want to give away the details, so I will not delve into the plot, I will only say that the marketing materials emphasize something that does not play as big a role in the film as you might expect. Although there is a lot of attention paid to this in the second half of the film, for me the real value of the film is the sense of realism surrounding Karolina’s story. When was the last time someone in a movie tried to convince a potential tenant to rent an apartment by offering them access to running water for two hours a day (from 10am to noon, which is probably not a great deal)? (assuming most people work those hours, of course)? When was drug use described in such an honest way? Even what Dagmar was doing was relatively common at the time, although I would venture to say that this is now on the decline and not as common as it used to be. Honestly, I might have liked the movie. Especially if the marketing had been different and Dagmar hadn’t been raised, because that created certain expectations. Although Dagmar is the main character, the movie is clearly about Karolina and her struggles. On the other hand, I can’t say how I would have felt if I had seen Dagmar Overby’s name on the door if I hadn’t known in advance that this was a real person being used in the movie. (It’s worth noting that the movie is inspired by real events, not based on them, so it tries to maintain a certain distance from the real Dagmar.) I think some viewers will have trouble understanding Karolina, because at times it seems like she makes the right decision a little too late. At the same time, there isn’t much time or opportunity to be ethical when you’re just trying to survive in a world where the odds are stacked against you. On the other hand, even though we know that the hope he’s been given won’t be in vain in this world, we still understand why he gives up. I like the look of the film. It’s black and white, and the entire town seems run down and barely hanging on. It reminds us of the lack of concern for prosperity, and even contempt for the working poor. Has much really changed? The moment described took place over a hundred years ago, but the concept of female bodily autonomy is still under attack. Of course, all art is in some way a reflection of the era in which it was created, but it’s easier to see the similarities here.
