Based on the works of Nobel Prize winner Martin Nisso, the film describes the late 19th century, an old Swedish farmer, Raskasen, who immigrated to Denmark with his only young son, Pell, in pursuit of their ideal kingdom. It's a pity that the only job they can find is as a horse porch worker in a stone farm. At night, they can only sleep on the thatch pile with the horses. The father and son who have been humiliated have witnessed all kinds of darkness and evil in the manor. Eric, the long-term worker in the manor, led the workers to rebel against the tyranny of the housekeeper. Later, due to an accident, he became dementia and disabled. Encouraged by his brave spirit, Pell decided to leave the manor and inherit Eric's desire to conquer the world.
The original is a well-known classic in Denmark. The film has been modified to a certain extent to remove the sadness and sarcasm in the original, making it too formal and mediocre, lacking the layering of ups and downs; The experience showed the audience the cruelty of the ruling class of feudal society represented by farms and the awakening of the working people represented by long-term workers. In addition to its rich content, the majestic and beautiful images created by the photographer are indispensable. Actor modeling and acting are realistic and natural, Peer is especially good. The film has won Best Picture at Cannes, Best Foreign Language Film at the Oscars, and Best Picture at the European Film Awards.

    Looking at life from the perspective of children's growth - although it is a classic, it is the first time to watch it, and the first time is Blu-ray HD - I have seen a lot of DVDs in the past, but I have never taken them. Have time to watch it again to deepen the impression.

    The long-term worker Eric, when he played the accordion on Christmas Eve, united his co-workers with joy, and shyly embarrassed the housekeeper. When I got to the horse, I raised the pole, with a big rock tied to the head of the pole for prying water buckets... Obviously the author does not advocate violent revolution to solve class oppression, but he does not want to subjectively obstruct the legitimate demands of labor rights protection and protest. Rarely evokes a narrative magic weapon that is usually only used "on the head" of negative characters: poetic justice. It is difficult to call it "justice" here, but it is indeed "poetic". Afterwards, the manor owner was castrated, which can be regarded as a kind of balance: people exist in the world, no matter how high or low, "excessive" will be curbed.
