Synopsis
Australian premiere
Den sidste viking
Written and directed by Anders Thomas Jensen (Riders of Justice) The Last Viking is a humorous, intriguing, and devious tale about identity starring Mads Mikkelsen (Another Round) and Nikolaj Lie Kaas (Department Q) alongside a stellar ensemble.
Anker (Lie Kaas) is released from prison after a fifteen-years sentence for robbery and plans to go somewhere sunny on a never-ending holiday. He just needs the money from the heist, which was buried by his brother Manfred (Mikkelsen), near their mother’s home.
Only Manfred knows where the money is, but unfortunately since Anker has been imprisoned, Manfred has developed an alter ego, none other than The Beatles frontman John Lennon, and has completely forgotten all about the money!
With help from a psychologist, together the brothers embark on an unexpected journey to jog Manfred's memory, locate the heist money and discover who they really are.
Reuniting writer-director Anders Thomas Jensen with Mads Mikkelsen and Nikolaj Lie Kaas in their sixth project together, The Last Viking is a dark, yet reflective comedy filled with unpredictable twists and turns.
