Someone You Love
Pernille Fischer Christensen : 2014
En du elsker
Danish musician Thomas Jacob has made an international name for himself as a singer and songwriter. He lives for his music. After years of absence he returns to his native land to record a new album with his long-standing producer, Molly Moe. His assistant, Kate, who helps him with everything, has rented a large house where he proposes to hide himself away. But his daughter Julie, with whom he has never had much contact, and her eleven-year-old son, Noa, whom Thomas has never met, put an end to this idea. Julie, a single mother, is admitted to a rehabilitation clinic and Thomas is obliged to have Noa to stay. Slowly a relationship develops between grandfather and grandson. But then calamity strikes and Thomas must make a decision which will change his life – and not just his. Pernille Fischer Christensen's fourth feature describes the transformation of a successful musician but disagreeable egocentric into somebody who is prepared to take on responsibility for himself and others. Her film premiered at Berlin International Film Festival 2014.
