The Danish Woman

Rambo, Napoleon and Pippi Longstocking - all rolled into one - and she lives next door. When Ditte Jensen retires with honours from the Danish Secret Service, she moves into an apartment block in Reykjavik, where she plans to tend to her garden and live out her life in anonymity. But Ditte cannot stop being who she is: an elite soldier and a warrior. Soon, the apartment building becomes a battlefield for a better world. With her deep-rooted sense of justice, she sees her neighbours' problems and feels compelled to help - whether they want her help or not. And in her world, the end justifies the means. Always.
