Peter von Scholten
Directed by Palle Kjærulff-Schmidt
With Ole Ernst, Karen-Lise Mynster, Anna Adair, Jesper Langberg and Henning Moritzen
He freed the slaves in 1848. He spoke out against the king and the government. He loved his wives equally. He was colorful, he was autocratic, he was Denmark's last governor-general of the West Indies, his name was Peter von Scholten. The film about him is a magnificent story of greatness, power, and stubbornness on the one hand, and of love, loyalty, and melancholy on the other. It is a colorful gallery of characters that depicts the times, the Dane in a foreign land—and the black man in relief to the white.
