The Danish Woman

Episode 2

A Broken Child

Ditte confronts young children’s screen addiction and provides therapy for toxic masculinity, even if it leads to a few broken hearts. As she forms closer ties with the community in the building, the more tasks arise. On the first floor there are refugees in distress, the family on the third floor suffers from codependency, and on the second floor resides the building’s environmental mess - which also happens to be the chairman of the tenants’ association.

Episode 3

Midwives

Dreams and reality begin to blur for Ditte as the pressure mounts from becoming the building community’s main saviour. Old colleagues from the Danish intelligence service resurface, aiming to coerce Ditte into taking on an extremely difficult assignment.

Episode 4

The Execution

Ditte’s dream of creating a passionate, family-like community - with herself at the centre as the building’s helper and saviour - seems to be coming true. She believes that the ends always justify the means, and so she takes on a public institution with a microbial assault, breaking the Fifth Commandment in the process. With that, she can cross two tasks off her “list.”

Episode 5

Broken Bones

Ditte takes on one final assignment for the Danish intelligence service. But in her mind, the bigger mission is still taking over the tenants’ association, a task that demands resilience, strength, and all of her abilities. At the same time, she unexpectedly clashes with organized crime in Iceland, facing a worthy adversary.

Episode 6
