After completing a task, three hackers find some documents they cannot decipher. Shortly afterwards, one of them leaves a cryptic message and disappears. Her two companions now face their first real encounter in reality and a journey to find their friend.

Starring Reuter Christiansen herself and shot in the lush landscape of Møn, the Danish island where she has lived since 1970, THE EXECUTIONER uses a fragmented narrative to tell “a story of woman’s degradation and exaltation,” as its subtitle indicates. A landmark of Danish feminist art, the film was also Reuter Christiansen’s first major collaboration with Henning, who composed the film’s lyrical, subtly experimental music.
