Cast

Plot

Ulrik Torp is assigned as a parliamentary reporter to the Danish government, but what begins as a relatively uninspiring job swiftly escalates into a game of life threatening political skulduggery as Ulrik uncovers a conspiracy that reaches to the very top of the controlling party. King's Game is a sharp and original political thriller and winner of no less than eight Danish Academy awards, including best film and best director. The DVD extras contains some interesting information on which real Danish politicians the characters in the film are actually modelled on.
