The Commune (2016)

"The Commune" is Thomas Vinterberg's drama about a Danish household experimenting with collective living in the 1970s, tracing how shared ideals slowly unravel personal relationships. Trine Dyrholm anchors the film with a raw, unguarded performance as a woman watching her marriage dissolve within the group's open arrangement, and the film doesn't shy from the intimacy that experiment demands. There's just 1 scene clip on site, but it's a telling one, capturing the exposed vulnerability at the heart of the story. Julie Agnete Vang rounds out the ensemble in this quietly unflinching look at freedom and its costs.
