Unheimlich

The inevitable

2026 · 23 min · ★ 10.0 · Thriller, Drama

Unheimlich is a psychological drama about a man who's convinced that he's dead. The film takes place at Christmas in Copenhagen with all the laughter and joy. But not from our lead character. He just sits at the famous Christmas-attraction 'Kongens Nytorv' in the heart of Copenhagen and just observe 'the living'. One day at Kongens Nytorv, he spots a man who looks exactly like himself, but this man is dangerous, and when he sees our lead character starring at him - he just goes off and walks directly at him and threatens him not to look at him. The movie explores the feeling of emptiness in a dead man living in the very systematic society, that we live our everyday-life in. And watch it.
