Starring Poul Reichhardt, Grethe Thordahl, Astrid Villaume

The streets of postwar Copenhagen become a shadowy labyrinth of suspicion and danger in this taut, atmospheric thriller. Poul Reichhardt stars as Max, a philandering husband whose wife (Grethe Thordahl) fears that he may be cheating on her with her own sister (Astrid Villaume). Tensions mount further when a woman is found murdered and Max becomes the prime suspect—but what about the strange watchmaker (Erik Mørk) who seems to be hiding secrets of his own?
