K5 International has taken on distribution for Martin Zandvliet’s Land Of Mine (Under Sandet) about a sensitive chapter in Danish post-war history.
Zandvliet’s most ambitious film to date after his 2009 debut Applause and 2011’s A Funny Man is inspired by true events where more than 2,000 German prisoners of war were forced shortly after the Second World War to clear mines laid by German occupying forces along the Danish West coast. More than half of the young Germans were killed or seriously maimed.
Roland Møller, who made his screen debut in Tobias Lindholm and Michael Noer’s prison drama R, is cast in his first lead role as the Danish Sergeant Carl Leopold Rasmussen in charge of the prisoners, with Mikkel Boe Følsgaard, who received a Silver Bear as Best Actor at the 2012 Berlinale for his performance in A Royal Affair and was a Shooting Star last year, as Lieutenant Ebbe.
