Join us for a compelling afternoon of Danish cinema with The Kiss, directed by acclaimed filmmaker Bille August.

Set in the early 20th century, the film follows Anton, a young cavalry cadet, who becomes entangled in a complicated relationship with Edith, the disabled daughter of a wealthy baron. As Anton struggles to distinguish love from pity, honor from desire, he is drawn into a moral dilemma that tests his sense of duty, class expectations, and the emotional cost of compassion.

Loosely based on Stefan Zweig’s novel Beware of Pity, The Kiss is a nuanced and beautifully crafted drama that explores the fragile line between kindness and harm.
