Dreams Dont Make Noise When They Die

It has hardly been seen before that a 83yearold actor has starred in a Danish film but it is the case here where Kai Holm says goodbye to a long life in film and theater service He plays an old peasant who on his deathbed is waiting for his son Jon Bang Carlsen In a few days he relives the village life he comes from and which was marked by a hard and authoritarian upbringing He is at his fathers deathbed despair because it is still impossible to make contact and in a crisis situation he recognizes his fathers brutality in itself The film draws a bitter picture of human relationships where dreams while they die degenerates into power relations
