Synopsis

Based on a true story. Rosalinde Mynster stars as Sara, an intelligent and devout 17-year-old Jehovah's Witness who passionately pursues her religion's teachings. But when she falls in love with older boy and non-believer Teis (Pilou Asbæk), Sara is forced to choose between the desire she feels and the faith that forbids it. In a family torn apart by sin and salvation, can a teenage girl discover the courage to change her life forever? And in a world that rarely understands her insular creed, is love the most mysterious power of all? Jens Jørn Spottag and Sarah Boberg co-star in this poignant coming-of-age drama from award-winning filmmaker Niels Arden Oplev, director of the international sensation Drømmen (We Shall Overcome).
