With the Kalmar Union still in it's infancy, Queen Margrete (Trine Dyrholm) is trying to keep the Danes, Swedes and Norwegians aligned under the nominal kingship of her adopted son Erik (Morten Hee Andersen) in the face of the increasing fear of aggression from the neighbouring Germans. This task is suddenly made much more difficult when a pretender to his throne is unveiled. This gent (Jakob Oftebro) claims to be the son of the queen, and though she certainly had a son it was thought that he had been murdered many years earlier. The Norwegians are quick to support this new claim, but she is less inclined to panic and/or to execute summary justice - and that rouses suspicions about the stranger's true identity amidst the nobles and manages to antagonise her adopted son who has no intention of surrendering his throne. Adding to the pressures building on the Queen, Erik is set to marry the daughter of King Henry IV of England to cement a relationship that could help guarantee everyone's safety - but will the English want their royal dynasty married into the wrong family? Gradually, we all realise that there has been quite a degree of conspiring and lying going on for many years that spreads right to the heart of not just the kingdom, but to an influential church that cannot be guaranteed to do the right thing if it's not in it's own interests. This is quite a well produced and paced historical drama that illustrates quite engagingly the difficulties faced by anyone in holding together this loose confederation of warring nations. The fact that she was a woman doesn't appear to have inhibited her power, indeed her guile and shrewdness appear to have been quite well respected by those who appreciated her goals for unity and peace. To that end Dyrholm delivers competently, as does Søren Malling as the duplicitous priest and a solid supporting cast. It's perhaps a little verbose and also a little tame at times, but it's a period of history that is interesting to discover more about as the viking nations emerged from their raping and pillaging phase into something altogether more cohesive and important in the grand scheme of European politics. It's worth a watch if you're interested in (theatrical) Nordic history.

But after Rublev witnesses a brutal battle and unintentionally becomes involved, he takes a vow of silence and spends time away from his work. As he begins to ease his troubled soul, he takes steps towards becoming a painter once again.
Henry IV usurps the English throne, sets in motion the factious War of the Roses and now faces a rebellion led by Northumberland scion Hotspur. Henry's heir, Prince Hal, is a ne'er-do-well carouser who drinks and causes mischief with his low-class friends, especially his rotund father figure, John Falstaff. To redeem his title, Hal may have to choose between allegiance to his real father and loyalty to his friend.

This engaging series of childhood recollections tells of an unconventional school in Tokyo during World War II that combined learning with fun, freedom, and love.

The painter Lili Elbe was the first person to have gender confirmation surgery in the 1930s.
