A War (2015) is a Danish war drama film directed by Tobias Lindholm that explores the complexities of war and its impact on soldiers and their families. The movie follows Claus Michael Pedersen (Pilou Asbæk), a Danish army commander stationed in Helmand Province, Afghanistan. After a tragic incident, Claus makes a decision that results in the deaths of 11 innocent civilians, leading him to be accused of committing war crimes. The film delves into the psychological effects of war on soldiers and the difficult choices they must make in high-pressure situations. Upon returning to Denmark, Claus faces a court trial and struggles to come to terms with the consequences of his actions. His family, particularly his wife Maria (Tuva Novotny), also grapples with the emotional toll of his absence and the accusations he faces. Throughout the film, Lindholm employs a gritty realism style, using handheld camera work and raw, emotional performances to create a sense of intensity and authenticity. The supporting cast, including Søren Malling as Martin R. Olsen, Dar Salim as Najib Bisma, and Charlotte Munck as Lisbeth Danning, add depth to the story, highlighting the various perspectives and challenges faced by those involved in war.
