Wild Men
In this razor-sharp black comedy featuring Sofie Gråbøl, Martin flees to the mountains in a desperate attempt to cure his midlife crisis.
Director: Thomas Daneskov
Overview
Hilariously ill-equipped to live off the land and yet clad in Viking-like animal skins, he wanders the forest in a misguided attempt to regain his independence. But when he crosses paths with an injured drug dealer, he finds an unlikely ally in his quest for “manhood.”
The duo begin a beautiful friendship spent evading police, criminals, and the cold hard reality which the world seeks to bring them back to. Premiering at Tribeca Film Festival, Wild Men is an original take on a comedic crime caper. A razor-sharp, Coen Brothers-esque, black comedy. Martin’s version of a midlife crisis looks a little different than most. Released with the support of the BFI and National Lottery funding.
Contains strong injury detail, violence, language, drug misuse
