Directed by Magnus von Horn, The Girl with the Needle debuted at this year’s Cannes Film Festival and has been selected as Denmark’s submission for the Best International Feature Film category at the Oscars.

The film follows Karoline (Sonne), a young factory worker, who is struggling to survive in post-World War I Copenhagen. When she finds herself unemployed, abandoned, and pregnant, she meets Dagmar (Dyrholm), a charismatic woman running an underground adoption agency, helping mothers find foster homes for their unwanted children. With nowhere else to turn, Karoline takes on the role of a wet nurse. A strong connection is formed between the two women, but Karoline’s world shatters when she stumbles upon the shocking truth behind her work.

In other main competition awards, Lol Crawley won the Silver Frog for lensing The Brutalist while Paul Guilhaume won the Bronze Frog for Jacques Audiard’s Emilia Pérez.

This year marked Camerimage’s 32nd edition. The festival opened with a screening of Steve McQueen’s latest Blitz. The festival closed this evening with Universal’s Wicked.
