Tale starring Mad Mikkelsen as binge-drinking teacher voted best film at Covid-affected event
The story of a middle-aged teacher who turns to drink in order to cope with life has won the most prestigious award at this year’s
London film festival, although several other highly rated movies were not eligible owing to changes imposed because of Covid-19.
Thomas Vinterberg’s Another Round, which stars Mads Mikkelsen as a disillusioned teacher who along with a small group of colleagues decides to drink every day, won best film at the UK’s first major film awards since the start of the pandemic.
