Details

In the movie Krigen (2015), a Danish commander finds himself at the center of a moral dilemma in war-torn Afghanistan. During a tense encounter with the Taliban, he is forced to make a split-second decision that saves the lives of his men but unintentionally results in the deaths of several innocent Afghan civilians.

Haunted by guilt and tormented by the consequences of his actions, the commander returns to Denmark only to face criminal charges for his role in the incident. As he navigates the legal system, the commander becomes a target of public scrutiny and condemnation, further adding to his internal struggle.

Infused with gripping performances, Krigen provides a thought-provoking look into the moral ambiguities of war and the devastating consequences of difficult decisions made in the heat of the moment.
