Scenario
Inspired by a true story and directed by Magnus von Horn, THE GIRL WITH THE NEEDLE follows Karoline (Vic Carmen Sonne), a young factory worker struggling to survive in post-World War I Copenhagen. When she finds herself unemployed, abandoned, and pregnant, she meets Dagmar (Trine Dyrholm), a charismatic woman who runs an underground adoption agency that helps mothers find foster homes for their unwanted children. With no one else to turn to, Caroline takes on the role of a wet nurse. The two women form a strong bond, but her world is shattered when Caroline stumbles upon the shocking truth behind her work.
