Danes nearly deliver

The Hour of the Lynx (2013)

Directed by Soren Kragh-Jacobsen this film adapted from a play stars Sofie Grabol, Frederik Christian Johansen, Signe Egholm Olsen and Soren Malling. In Denmark a female priest is sought out by a psychiatrist to help a suicidal inmate.

The plot of this film starts off fairly interesting but the slow burn never really gets anywhere. While it is an interesting character study I did want a bit more from the plot. There are good performances from the cast and the direction captures some nice Nordic landscapes.


3/5
