King’s Land

Cinema release for ‘King’s Land’! In 1755, Danish King Frederik V calls for the colonisation of the wild moors of Jutland, where no one has yet managed to stand up to the merciless nature. The former soldier Ludvig Kahlen (Mads Mikkelsen) has nothing to lose and wants to conquer the no man’s land. But the power-hungry landowner Frederik De Schinkel claims ownership of the land and tries to make Kahlen fail with money, intrigue and violence.

For this production, Swedish costume designer Kicki Ilander borrowed costumes from our historical collection. Find out more in our interview with her: https://theaterkunst.de/news/interviews/
