Terribly Happy

Denmark

A new policeman comes to an isolated town in Jutland and finds that the folks there like to tend to their own affairs...which has major consequences for him.

Subdued, deadpan...nicely shot and framed...filled with that inscrutability I've come to expect in Scandinavian films. The protagonist was a typical anti-hero...facing off against a united community who manipulate him to their benefit.

Intelligent and well-done.
