The Guest
2026, Danish. Directed by Mads Mengel.
At a luxury seaside hotel, Karl and Emilie are preparing for their son’s naming party, when Karl’s estranged mother, Vibeke, suddenly turns up uninvited.

Over one tense weekend, old patterns and buried wounds surface in front of in-laws and guests — until the celebration fractures into a collision.
