INHERITANCE (2003)
PER FLY
Plot
Christoffer, heir to a vast industrial fortune, has abandoned the family business for owning a small restaurant and an idyllic life with Maria, a sensuous stage actress. When his father commits suicide, Christoffer returns to Denmark to face the life he left behind. What he finds is a business on the brink of bankruptcy, a brother-in-law scheming for control and a domineering bitch of a mother who insists Christoffer take over. His decision will force him to choose between two colliding worlds, will he sell his soul to the devil of filthy lucre or re-engage with humanity? Part of Per Fly's trilogy of films dealing with the social strata, and winner of six Danish Oscars. A superior soap opera.
