Warning: Spoilers
This was everything that danish television does best. The drama, the layers, the beautiful with the ugly. Nothing is hidden in this portrait of Karen Blixen / Isaac Dinesen. We see her struggling with having to return to Denmark after 20 years in Kenya. Establishing a life at her family home just north of Copenhagen, while battling the expectation of family and society. She was truly one of those people ahead of her time and fought for independence and respect.

If you are not familiar with Danish shows, this might be too intense. Start with another, movie is probably best. The Danish folk have a particular sense of humour and their dramas are filled with this layer of delicate relations.
