There have been waves of Danish directors who have taken to the film noir movement. Here is another example of one such film. Dogme co founder Kristian Levring, who joins the party with Fear Me Not. It was first screened at the Toronto Film Festival and now here we have a trailer from the movie. The trailer of the film also looks exceptional.

Synopsis

When Michael hears about a clinical trial for a new anti-depressant, he signs up on a whim. Unfortunately, the pills turn out to have serious side effects and the trial is abandoned. Michael refuses to give up his new-found sense of calm and self control which the pills have provided, so he decides to continue the experiment on his own. Intoxicated by his immediate success, Michael feels an urge to take control of other people’s lives as well. Slowly, his psychological games grow more drastic, until he makes a discovery which forces him to view his actions in a terrifying new light.

The story fits the Danish sensibility to the T. So I think this is going to be one of those movies to watch out for.

Here is the trailer for the movie.
