“Seductively surreal. A strange & haunting challenge.”- Megan Lehmann, New York Post
“A visual delight. Gorgeously old-fashioned. Bonnevie and Kaas are impossibly beautiful. Watching it feels like being in love.”- Carina Chocano, Los Angeles Times
“Four Stars!”- Robert K. Elder, Chicago Tribune
How much will one man sacrifice for his dream of true love?
A FILM BY CHRISTOFFER BOE
RECONSTRUCTION turns romantic drama inside out, laying bare the emotions in an explosion of images. It follows Alex (Nikolaj Lie Kaas), a photographer, and beautiful Aimee (Maria Bonnevie), who meet by chance and fall in love in the course of one intense day. Their feelings for each other are put to the test as the world around them becomes more and more alien in the labyrinthine Copenhagen. They skate their existence and find themselves in a free fall, with Alex facing the question of how far he is willing to go and how much he is ready to give up for his dream of true love.
