In “Home Sweet Home“, director Frelle Petersen continues his exploration of Southern Jutland’s ordinary lives, focusing on Sofie, a divorced mother who becomes a home care aide in rural Denmark.

Frelle Petersen‘s personal experience working in home healthcare deeply influenced the film’s narrative and character development, providing authentic insights into the emotional challenges faced by caregivers.

The casting of non-professional actors alongside professionals enhances the story’s realism, reflecting the genuine dynamics of small-town communities.

Home Sweet Home” aims to resonate with international audiences by highlighting the universal themes of compassion, resilience, and the intricate balance between professional duties and personal life.

 


Plot

Sofie begins a new job as a carer making home visits to old people in the small town where she lives with her 10-year-old daughter. Some of her patients are still quite mobile, others are bedridden and suffering from serious dementia. Sofie treats everyone with affection and professional care. She quickly finds her way into her role, but the harsh realities of the work soon become apparent. Sofie is increasingly stressed and exhausted and her relationship with her daughter suffers. But, in spite of all the challenges, she manages to retain her humanity and warmth. Director Frelle Petersen has cast a number of the roles in his film with non-professional actors from the region. With its precise and authentic portrayal, Home Sweet Home shines a light on a profession that fulfils such an important function in society but remains largely invisible to the public eye.
