She meets Dagmar, who runs an underground adoption agency

Plot

Copenhagen 1919: A young factory worker finds herself unemployed and pregnant. A strong bond develops, but her world falls apart when she stumbles upon the shocking truth behind her job. Denmark’s official submission for the “Best International Feature Film” category at the 97th Academy Awards in 2025. It’s the final days of the Great War and Karoline is barely making ends meet by working in a factory. She believes she’s a widow because her husband disappeared during the war (even though Denmark wasn’t actually involved), but she doesn’t receive widow’s benefits because he wasn’t declared dead.

While this gets a lot of attention in the second half of the film, for me the real value of the film is the sense of reality that surrounds Karoline’s story

A lot happens during the film and I don’t want to give away any spoilers, so I won’t go into the plot, except that the marketing is emphasizing something that isn’t as big a part of the film as some might expect . . . . When was the last time someone in a movie tried to convince a potential tenant to take over an apartment by telling them they can have running water for two full hours a day (from ten to noon, which might not be a great selling point since most people would be working during those hours)?

When was the rampant drug use of the time depicted so candidly?

What Dagmar does was also relatively common at the time, although I would venture to say that the trend was downward by then and it wasn’t happening as much as it used to. I actually might have enjoyed the movie more if the marketing had been different and Dagmar hadn’t been mentioned, because it created anticipation. While Dagmar is a main character, the movie is clearly about Karoline and her struggles. On the other hand, it’s hard to say how I would have felt seeing the name Dagmar Overby on a door if I hadn’t known in advance that this real-life person was being used in the movie. (It should be noted that the film is inspired by real life events rather than based on them, so they are trying to maintain some distance from the real Dagmar.) I think some audiences will find it hard to sympathize with Karoline, as she sometimes does seems to make the right decision a little too late.

Have things really changed that much?

At the same time, there isn’t much time or opportunity for ethics when you’re just trying to survive in a world where the odds have been stacked against you. On the other hand, while we know that the hope she was given would be for nothing in this world, we still understand why she gives up on it. I like the look of the film. It is in black and white and the entire town seems decrepit and barely able to hold on. It reminds us of the lack of interest in welfare or even contempt for the working poor.

The time period depicted was over a century ago, but the concept of female bodily autonomy is under constant attack again

Of course, all art is in some way a mirror of the period in which it was made, but it seems easier to see the similarities here.
