Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “The Girl With the Needle”, showing Jan. 10-16 at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre.
“The Girl With the Needle” is nominated the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture (Non-English Language) and is shortlisted for the Academy Award for Best International Film.
Karoline, a young factory worker, is struggling to survive in post WW1 Copenhagen. When she finds herself unemployed, abandoned and pregnant, she meets Dagmar, a charismatic woman running an underground adoption agency, helping mothers to find foster homes for their unwanted children.
With nowhere else to turn, Karoline takes on the role of a wet-nurse. A strong connection is formed between the two women, but Karoline’s world shatters when she stumbles upon the shocking truth behind her work.
Inspired by a true story and directed by Magnus von Horn, “The Girl With the Needle” is an unsettling tale about a woman struggling to find love and a sense of morality.
