All You Need is Love

Prejudice. Human rights. Bullying. "Romeo and Juliet" meets "Crash" meets "Requiem for a Dream"…with a twist. Based on the multi-award winning short film of the same name.

A Danish woman, Ida (Trine Dyrholm), who has just finished her cancer treatments, walks in on her suffering husband in bed with his young co-worker. She travels alone to their daughter's wedding, which is to take place in Italy, but meets the father of the groom, Philip (Pierce Brosnan), and immediately makes a bad first impression. At the seaside villa where Philip once lived with his wife, conflicts arise not least between the soon-to-be newlyweds. But first impressions fade, and Ida may find her chance for another life.

Susanne Bier directs and co-writes this romantic comedy starring Pierce Brosnan and Trine Dyrholm. Danish hairdresser and cancer patient Ida (Dyrholm) finishes with chemotherapy and, upon arriving home, finds her husband cheating on her with his youthful colleague. In her vulnerable state she leaves for Italy where her daughter Astrid (Molly Blixt Egelind) is getting married and on the way encounters widower Philip (Brosnan), the estranged father of Astrid's husband-to-be Patrick (Sebastian Jessen). As Ida and Philip get to know one another they each begin to discover a new lease of life.

D'origine anglaise, Philip, la cinquantaine, s'est établi au Danemark où il vit seul depuis qu'il a perdu sa femme. De son côté, Ida, coiffeuse danoise, se remet progressivement de sa chimiothérapie, tandis que son mari vient de la quitter pour une femme plus jeune…
