Description

***THIS IS THE STANDARD EDITION AND DOES NOT INCLUDE A SLIP COVER*** Lasse, an elderly and widowed farmer, and his young son Pelle, join a boat-load of immigrants to escape from impoverished rural Sweden to Denmark's Baltic island of Bornholm. They are employed at a large farm in Denmark, where they are treated as the lowest of the low. It is ultimately their loving relationship which sustains them through a difficult year.Commentary by film scholar Peter Cowie.
