*The Promised Land* tells the gripping true story of Captain Ludvig Kahlen (Mads Mikkelsen), a proud and impoverished soldier who embarks on a seemingly impossible mission. In 1755, he sets out to conquer the harsh, untamed heath of Jutland with a single goal: to establish a colony in the name of the King and, in return, earn a coveted royal title for himself. However, his ambition places him in direct conflict with the merciless local landowner, Frederik de Schinkel, a man who believes the heath belongs to him and will stop at nothing to drive Kahlen away. As Kahlen battles the brutal forces of nature and the even more brutal cruelty of his rival, he finds his solitary quest complicated by the formation of an unlikely family of outcasts, forcing him to choose between his personal ambition and the people he has come to care for.
