The Girl with the Needle, directed by Magnus von Horn and co-written by Line Langebek Knudsen, will debut in UK and Irish cinemas in January through MUBI.
The film received its World Premiere in Competition at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, and stars Vic Carmen Sonne (Neon Heart, Godland), Trine Dyrholm (The Commune, Queen of Hearts, Mary and George), Besir Zeciri (Wildland), and Joachim Fjelstrup (Itsi Bitsi).
Young factory worker Karoline (Vic Carmen Sonne) is struggling to survive in post-WWI Copenhagen. When she ends up unemployed, abandoned and pregnant, the charismatic Dagmar (Trine Dyrholm) takes her in as a wet-nurse at an underground adoption agency which finds foster homes for unwanted children. A deep connection forms between them, until a shocking discovery suddenly shatters Karoline’s world.
Specifically, MUBI will debut the film on screens on 10th January 2025.
Here’s the new trailer.
