Set in the neurosurgical ward of Copenhagen's Rigshospitalet, the city and country's main hospital, nicknamed "Riget", "Riget" means "the realm" or "the kingdom" and leads one to think of "dødsriget", the realm of the dead.

VIBE

A hauntingly bizarre hospital drama where the mundane and the supernatural collide. It’s a slow descent into a surreal, unsettling world that feels both deeply familiar and utterly alien, laced with a peculiar, dark humor.
