Speak No Evil

Christian Tafdrup, Denmark, 2022

97 min.DK/Feature

On a vacation in Tuscany, a Danish family instantly becomes friends with a Dutch family. Months later, the Danish couple receives an unexpected invitation to visit the Dutch in their wooden house and decide to go for the weekend. However, it doesn't take long before the joy of reunion is replaced with misunderstandings. Things gradually get out of hand, as the Dutch turn out to be something very different than what they have pretended to be. The small Danish family now finds themselves trapped in a house that they wish they had never entered.
