Adam's Apple

Adam Pederson (Ulrich Thomsen) is a neo-Nazi for whom being evil is a job description. He is sentenced to community service at a Danish countryside church where he meets Ivan (Mads Mikkelsen). Ivan can only see good in the world and fanatically blocks out the bad by blaming the Devil. Adam is tasked with looking after an apple tree to bake a pie at the end of his sentence. But the task he undertakes is to show Ivan that evil is in man and the Devil has no part in it. A dark comedy that will strangely have you in splits during moments of grave sadness and utmost gravity.
