In A Better World (2010)
Original title Hævnen
Director Susanna Bier
A film about family issues placed in a broader social context, the title In A Better World reflects how much Bier and regular screenwriter Anders Thomas Jensen long for one. Two preteen boys in Denmark become friends at school. One is the regular punching bag for the school bully; his father (brilliant performance by Mikael Persbrandt) is a non-violent doctor who treats the displaced in a sub-Saharan Africa refugee camp. The other boy is a brat who has lost his mother. His anger is displaced onto a social order he perceives as abusive, and he adopts the philosophy of preventive aggression. - Sarajevo Film Festival 2011
