Movie Review: The Girl with the Needle

Set against the backdrop of a grimy, war-torn Copenhagen, the film follows Karoline (Vic Carmen Sonne), a young pregnant woman who finds herself desperate for support. She takes on the role of a wet nurse for Dagmar (Trine Dyrholm), a seemingly kind-hearted woman who runs a candy store that hides a dark secret: a clandestine adoption agency. As Karoline becomes entwined in Dagmar’s world, she uncovers a chilling reality that forces her to confront her own trauma and societal abandonment.
