When I'm captain, you can polish my boots.
- You're so clever. - Yes, I'm the clever one.
You're just the one with the muscles!
The Danish colors are showing Europe -
- that we're a modern and democratic kingdom.
In order to unite people we need to use ...
... their rhetoric, Monrad.
A political game of power sends two brothers to war.
They're all conservative and against changes.
They're against us who want to create a new world!
- Is Slesvig a part of that world?
- Slesvig must follow Denmark's lead into a new world.
People are prepared to shed blood for their country.
They ask, if their king will do the same?
In Europe people are turning against the monarchies.
But not in Denmark. Not yet.
Moltke ... This is a declaration of war.
The bloodiest war in Danish history.
- All deadlines are exceeded? - Yes, your majesty.
We have plenty of time to prepare.
If the Germans are foolish enough to attack, it won't be before summer.
They're 10,000 men. And we're 2,000.
I've just been informed that Germany and Prussia have declared war against Denmark.
We bid them welcome. Let them again face the Danish army once more -
- where they'll suffer a well-deserved defeat.
A story of love, war and political arrogance.
The Danish army is the strongest! We can do what others cannot.
We can do what everyone else can. We can live and we can die.
Written and directed by Ole Bornedal.
Forward, march!
Cowardice has no excuse.
There are no cowards behind this line.
- What's that supposed to mean?
- I know a coward, when I see one.
- What's in there?
- Nothing. They'll die anyway.
Take cover!
Hit me!
Hearts bleed in war and love.
Coming this fall.
