Kysset (2022)
Set in Denmark just before the outbreak of World War I, Anton, a young cavalry officer, becomes entangled in the life of Edith, the sheltered daughter of a wealthy baron, whose existence has been shaped by illness and rigid social conventions. As an unexpected bond grows between them, Anton is drawn into a world defined by class divisions, unspoken longing, and quiet rebellion. Through tenderness and courage, they must both confront the limits imposed upon them and risk everything for love and personal freedom.
