Synopsis:
Debuting at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival, Christian Tafdrup's Speak No Evil, co-written with his brother Mads, is a shocking psychological horror film which stunned audiences and critics alike, leading to a Best International Film win at the Fangoria Chainsaw Awards and a 2024 Hollywood remake starring James McAvoy.
During a summer vacation in Tuscany, Italy, a reserved Danish family - Bjørn and Louise and their young daughter Agnes - befriend an outgoing Dutch couple, Patrick and Karin, holidaying with their young boy, Abel. Four months after returning home, Bjørn receives a surprise postcard from Patrick, inviting the Danes to spend a weekend at their countryside house in the Netherlands. But when Bjørn and Louise arrive, the supposedly idyllic and relaxing weekend soon starts to unravel as they try their very best to stay polite in the face of mounting unease.
Driven by incredible performances and a menacing score from Sune Kølster, Tafdrup's Danish original expertly blends a dark comedy of manners with an ominous sense of dread - escalating towards a truly terrifying climax that reveals the horrors that lie awaits in the face of complicity and silence.
