Parents, the directorial debut of Danish actor Christian Tafdrup has been picked up for world sales by LevelK, ahead of the film’s premiere this Friday at New Yor’s Tribeca Film Festival.

The film produced by Nordisk Film Production stars Søren Malling and Bodil Jørgensen as a couple of empty nesters, trying to adjust to their new life and moving into their pre-parenthood apartment. 

The small budget film backed by the Danish Film Institute’s New Danish Screen is one of 8 titles competing in Tribeca’s International Narrative Competition programme. Tafdrup will introduce his film to Tribeca audiences alongside producer Thomas Heinesen, actress Miri Ann Beuschel, actor Anton Honik and editor Anne Østerud.
