A darkly surreal, supernatural horror-comedy set in a hospital where the boundary between the living and dead dissolves into increasingly bizarre and unsettling phenomena.

At The Kingdom, Denmark's most technologically advanced hospital, a number of strange and otherworldly events begin occurring, much to the dismay of its doctors and patients. A ghostly ambulance appears and disappears, the voice of a little girl calls to a patient in an elevator shaft, and a doctor's fetus begins growing at an alarming rate.
