I’ve had travels like [the characters in] where I’ve met people on holidays, socialized with them, and then saw them again and had, you know, another experience. I thought that situation was almost like a comedy, but I wanted to take it to a darker place.

I mean, we live safe lives here in Denmark and probably most of the Western world. We’ve got a lot of privilege; I’m not used to violence every day or war or anything.
