Rose
2023 ( Denmark ) (Comedy/Drama) (English sub-titles)
Starring: Sofie Grabol, Lene Maria Christensen, Anders W Berthelsen
Director: Niels Arden Oplev
Rose is the story of two sisters, Inger and Ellen, and how their relationship is challenged on a highly anticipated coach trip to Paris. When Inger announces her struggles with mental health to the group, the sisters are faced with pity from some and discrimination from others. On arrival in Paris, it soon becomes clear that Inger has a hidden agenda concerning a figure from her past, ultimately involving the entire group in her hunt for answers.
Eloquent on the stigmas faced by those with mental illness, Rose is also committed to honesty about the difficulty of living with profound disorders. There are no easy answers in this subtle, heartfelt, funny and involving drama, which features an excellent performance from Sofie Grabol in particular.
