by Wung-Sung Jesper
LTF Stock #: 000133
In 1853 Denmark, 15-year-old Niels Nelson awaits execution for a petty theft turned murder, confined in a cell as a crowd gathers outside, reflecting on his impoverished life and the harsh justice system. Through his poignant inner monologue and the perspectives of townsfolk—ranging from a compassionate priest to a vengeful mother—the story unfolds as a stark, emotional exploration of guilt, redemption, and the human cost of capital punishment in a historical setting.
