Inspired by his own childhood experiences, The Commune is the new comedy-drama by BAFTA-nominated director Thomas Vinterberg (Festen, The Hunt) who reunites with writer Tobias Lindholm (The Hunt, A Hijacking)<br /><br />In the early-70s, successful professor of architecture Erik inherits a large mansion in suburban Copenhagen and decides to set up a commune with his wife Anna and daughter Freja. Together they invite friends, acquaintances and strangers to live with them, creating a melting pot of left-wing ideas and new familial bonds. But when Erik begins an affair with Emma, a beautiful young student from his course, the spirit of free love that formed the foundations of the commune will threaten to bring it all tumbling down.<br /><br />By turns witty, moving and poignant, The Commune is an insightful portrayal of human relationships performed by a stunning ensemble cast, most notably Trine Dyrholm, who was awarded the 2016 Berlin Silver Bear for Best Actress for her performance as Anna. <br /><br />The Commune opens in cinemas & on demand on 29 July. http://www.TheCommuneFilm.com
