About this item
Aged 63 Karen Blixen is at the pinnacle of her fame and next in line to win the Nobel Prize for literature. It has been 17 years since she gave up her famous farm in Africa only to return to Denmark with her life in ruins. Devastated by syphilis and having lost the love of her life she has reinvented herself as a literary sensation. She is an isolated genius, however, until the day she meets a talented 30-year-old poet. She promises him literary stardom if he in return will obey her unconditionally even at the cost of him losing everything else in his life…From the Academy Award and Palme D’or winning director Bille August comes the adaptation of the bestselling novel, Pagten; the story about world famous writer Karen Blixen. Blixen is best known for Out of Africa (1985), an account of her life while living in Kenya that was brought to the screen by Sydney Pollack in 1985 and won 7 Academy Awards. Bille August is the director behind the Oscar winning film Pelle the Conqueror (1987) and House of Spirits (1993), starring Meryl Streep. Recently Bille directed the period drama A Fortunate Man (2018).
