(L-R): Actors Jesper Christensen and Jesper Lohmann appear in ShockYa’s exclusive clip from co-writer-director Anders Refn’s Danish war drama, ‘Into the Darkness.’
The disintegration of a family amidst political turmoil and unrest is just as relatable now as it was during World War II. The new war drama, ‘Into the Darkness,’ depicts a family falling apart amid Denmark’s slow slide into fascism under the shadow of the Third Reich.
Samuel Goldwyn Films is set to release the movie today in U.S. theatrical and VOD platforms. In honor of the drama’s distribution, ShockYa is premiering an exclusive clip from the feature.

The second instalment of the WW2 saga, penned by Refn himself and his regular collaborator
Flemming Quist Møller, is set between 1943 and 1945 and will centre on Aksel Skov (
Mads Reuther), who has become a hard-boiled partisan and left his family. As the Danish coalition government collapses, the patriarch Karl (Jesper Christensen) suddenly lacks political support and is forced to take drastic decisions to protect his family assets, which puts the relationship with his wife Eva (Bodil Jørgensen) under harsher pressure as she has always struggled with Karl’s collaboration with the Germans. The growing opposition to the occupying forces and increased brutality of the Germans have fatal consequences for the family.
