    • Trivia
      The title "Ser du månen, Daniel?" ("Do you see the moon, Daniel?") is from the book by Puk Damsgård by the same title, where Daniel's mother writes in her diary while he's captive and comforts herself by knowing that they're under the same.

    Strong lead character performance
    Esben Smed is performing extremely well and strong in the role as Daniel. Fantastic dramatisation of actual events.
