Worlds Apart
Directed by Niels Arden Oplev
Produced by Nordisk Film Denmark
A tender coming-of-age drama about a young woman torn between her insular religious upbringing and the pull of first love, grounded in genuine emotional stakes.
17-year-old Sara leads a sheltered existence with her family, members of Jehovah’s Witnesses, when she meets the outsider Teis and falls in love. Sara, herself a believer, now faces an important turning point in her life as she is forced to choose between religion and love.
