Not a modern version of "Tristan and Isolde" although the classic tragedy does pierce the fabric of the present-day narrative in subconscious flashes through the mind of the title character, who leaves a husband; is attracted to a young student; and falls in love with a mercenary soldier on leave and for hire, i.e. he is hired by the spurned husband, a politician, to kill none other than Isolde.

Det Danske Filminstitut registrerer international festivaldeltagelse og priser til danske film,
dog primært de titler, som Filminstituttet varetager i sin festivaldistribution,
og primært i forbindelse med de festivaler, som Filminstituttet har prioriteret at samarbejde med.
Registreringen af festivaldeltagelse og priser til danske film, der ikke er i festivaldistribution,
foretages kun for "launch"-festivaler ifølge Filminstituttets prioriterede festivalliste. Se listen over prioriterede festivaler.
