ABOUT 'THE WORD'
------------------------------------
Morten Borgen is a farmer and a man of faith who awakened his region to Christianity in the spirit of Grundtvig. He has three sons: Mikkel, Johannes and Anders. Mikkel, who works the farm and is married to Inger, does not share his father’s faith. Johannes, once a student of theology, has lost his mind. Anders wants to marry Anne, the tailor’s daughter, but her family belongs to the Inner Mission, which is irreconcilable with Grundtvigianism, and so the young lovers can’t wed. Inger dies giving birth to a stillborn son. The calamity softens the two stern fathers and they give Anders and Anne permission to marry. Inger’s daughter, Maren, and Johannes, who has regained his sanity, pray by Inger’s casket for God to bring her back from the dead – and a miracle happens.

OM FILMEN
------------------------------------
ORDET
Instruktør: Carl Th. Dreyer
'Ordet' dissekerer skarpt den dobbeltmoral, der opstår, når tro bliver til regler og vaner i stedet for følelser og hengivelse. I et vestjysk sogn er grundtvigianeren Morten Borgen den største gårdejer. Den mellemste af hans tre sønner, Johannes, er blevet sindssyg og tror, han er Jesus. Den yngste søn kan ikke få lov at ægte datteren af den lokale indremissionske leder, Peter Skrædder. Da den ældste søns kone, Inger, dør i barselsseng, beder hendes otteårige datter Johannes, om ikke han vil vække moderen til live igen. Barnets enfoldige tro får ham til at udvirke det mirakel, der gør de interne kirkelige modsætninger ligegyldige. Filmen er rendyrket minimalistisk, kølig perfektion og en rejse ind i det næsten ordløse.
