Thomas Vinterberg’s drama about two brothers struggling to survive in the aftermath of a tragic childhood.

The guilt-ridden Nick and his younger brother, a single father battling heroin addiction, reunite under tragic circumstances after years apart. Against the backdrop of a bleak Copenhagen, Thomas Vinterberg portrays the brothers’ challenging life paths and how childhood traumas continue to shape their lives and prospects. With compelling performances by Jakob Cedergren and Peter Plaugborg, Submarino explores themes of guilt and addiction, but also unconditional love between two brothers, and the potential for reconciliation in the merciless balance between nature and nurture.
