When his wife dies, Lassefar (Max von Sydow) takes his 12-year-old son, Pelle (Pelle Hvenegaard), from their home in Sweden to Denmark in search of a better life. Signing on as laborers at a large farm, father and son undergo numerous trials, including prejudice against immigrants and run-ins with those more powerful than themselves in both the physical and the social sense. Over the course of a year, young Pelle learns what it takes to survive in a harsh and unforgiving world. —yusufpiskinboy frontal nudityboy taking a bathboyfarm workerfather son relationship94 morePlot summaryAdd synopsisTaglinesDe trodde att världen skulle bli derasGenreDramaMotion Picture Rating (MPAA)PG-13Parents guide
