- Synopsis
- Director Charlotte Sieling has a long
  career as one of the most acclaimed
  Danish directors on TV-series as Unit
  One (2002), The Killing (2009), The
  Bridge (2011), Those Who Kill (2014)
  and the US series Homeland. With
  MARGRETE - QUEEN OF THE NORTH,
  Charlotte Sieling will bring one of the
  greatest stories from the Nordics to the
  big screen. The story of one of the most
  powerful women in History.
  The year is 1402. Margrete has achieved
  
  what no man has managed before.
  She has gathered Denmark, Norway and
  Sweden into a peace-oriented union,
  which she single-handedly rules through
  her young, adopted son, Erik. The union is
  beset by enemies, however, and Margrete
  is therefore planning a marriage between
  Erik and an English princess. An alliance
  with England should secure the union’s
  status as an emerging European power
  but a breathtaking conspiracy is under
  way that can tear Margrete and all she
  believes in apart.
