AFTERMATH (Lad De Små Børn)


6 p.m.

"How does one bear the unbearable?" This is the question asked by Claes and Britt, a couple in their mid-30s who lost their only child in a car accident. Now they struggle to overcome their grief. Britt can't talk about it; Claes can't talk about anything else. Britt buries herself in her social-work job, becoming involved with a single mother and her baby, exceeding the bounds of professional interest. Claes is unable to function at work and is sent home on leave. He doesn't tell Britt, but spends his days stalking the woman who ran over their daughter. When Britt clashes with the mother, and Claes confronts the woman, it's clear that revenge cannot conquer grief.
