Copenhagen 1919: a young worker finds herself unemployed and pregnant. She meets Dagmar, who runs an underground adoption agency. A strong bond develops, but her world is shattered when she stumbles upon the shocking truth behind her work. Denmark’s official submission for the “Best International Feature Film” category at the 97th Academy Awards in 2025.. Having studied journalism, I’m not usually one to shy away from a disturbing story, whether it’s told through reportage or on the big screen. However, there are times when I have to question the wisdom of making certain films in the first place. Just because it can be done, in my opinion, doesn’t necessarily mean it should be done. Such is the case with writer-director Magnus von Horn’s third feature, a dark, factual tale that is inherently disturbing and, frankly, pushes the boundaries of good taste. The film, set in Copenhagen as World War I draws to a close, follows the life of Karoline (Vic Carmen Sonne), a factory seamstress whose husband, Peter (Besir Zeciri), was believed to have died during the conflict. In his absence, she becomes romantically involved with and pregnant by her boss, Jørgen (Joachim Fjelstrup), who summarily abandons her when her wealthy, controlling mother (Benedikte Hansen) threatens to cut off his funding if they marry. Karoline is left facing the prospect of becoming an unemployed single mother. She takes drastic measures to end the pregnancy, but reconsiders her decision when she meets a seemingly compassionate and supposedly legitimate but highly unscrupulous child-minder, Dagmar (Trine Dyrholm), who offers to help Karoline out of her dilemma – for a price. However, little does he know that the price is far higher than he ever imagined, especially when it comes to the new stranger and his utterly unscrupulous operation. What ensues is one of the most disturbing stories I have ever seen brought to film, one that truly makes me wonder if it should have ever been told in the first place. Admittedly, this film is technically well-made, with gorgeous black-and-white cinematography and fine performances across the board. However, it is so cold and disturbing that even viewers with iron stomachs and an unyielding cinematic sensibility may find it difficult to sit through it. Perhaps it would have worked better as a documentary than a narrative reenactment, but that is small comfort in the face of the disturbing subject matter of this offering. It also makes me wonder how so many critics, award shows and film festivals have come to heap so much praise on it, despite the undeniable technical skill that went into making this film. These results do not seem to be sufficient to justify the existence of this release and represent a growing trend towards an inherently insensitive and irresponsible approach to filmmaking, the further development of which, in my opinion, should be nipped in the bud, no matter how innovative, inventive and provocative it may be seen as. Some have tried to characterize “The Girl with the Needle” as a chilling horror film, but, from my point of view, I see it more as a horrible film, a very dubious distinction, to be sure. In fact, don’t say they didn’t warn you about this.
