Emancipação e Primeiras Eleições - Historiando em Novo Barreiro
Impassivity and silence are Mads Mikkelsen's trademarks, and roles without reply his specialty. His sculptural allure is such that his mere presence takes on a dramatic dimension. For him, everything starts with the body. It's his main working tool, which he shapes and engages for each film.

But what kind of man was hiding behind the actor with the handsome, boyish looks, who appeared so gentle and nonchalant?
