Soren Kierkegaard stars as a sleek young executive in old Copenhagen, and a single guy who is fanatically, even ecstatically, addicted to philosophy. It's an addiction that is strip-mining his personality of all recognisable human impulses. He is living in a hell that he has furnished and maintained himself, but it was made by willful moral incest. A clue to this lies in his desperately unhappy screwup of a father, Samuel, played by Carey Mulligan. To Kierkegaard's dismay, Samuel announces he is going to be crashing at his bachelor pad while following his dream of being a wool merchant, cramping his style and annoying the hell out of him.

Step inside the mind of a fist made of knotted worms. Hold onto your bloomer sleeves, this is going to get mucky!
