TrustNordisk is proud to be presenting the latest feature from award-winning director and actress, Paprika Steen, THAT TIME OF YEAR.
Paprika Steen has positioned herself as a strong Scandinavian name to keep an eye out for. Her former international acclaimed films- both as an actress and director include Applaus (2009), Silent Heart (2014), With Your Permission (2007) among others.
THAT TIME OF YEAR is a quirky ensemble dramedy about that special time of year, Christmas and all the family drama that goes along with it.
It stars Paprika Steen, Sofie Gråbøl (THE KILLING, 2012; THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT, 2018), Jacob Lohmann (THE GUILTY, 2018), Lars Brygmann (ACROSS THE WATERS, 2016), Karen-Lise Mynster (WALK WITH ME, 2016), Lars Knutzon (YOU DISAPPEAR, 2017), Patricia Schumann (SUBMARINO, 2010) and Fanny Leander Bornedal (THE PURITY OF VENGEANCE, 2018), amongst others.
This year at Katrine and Mads' house the family will once again be united around Christmas Eve and on a traditional holiday like this, there has to be room for everyone; the divorced parents, the youngest sister and her new husband and not least the teenage daughter of the family, struggling to get her mother's attention. Underneath the surface the explosion lurks as flammable as a dry spruce and when the truth starts to appear, the illusion of holiday peace, that we so deeply insist on, shatters.
THAT TIME OF YEAR is produced by Mikael Rieks for Nordisk Film Production A/S with support from TV2, FilmFyn v/Bo Damgaard and the Danish Film Institute.
