Bakerman is a feature film written and directed by David Noel Bourke. It stars Mikkel Vadsholt, Siir Tilif, Brian Hjulmann and Mia Lerdam. The movie evolved from a previous project White Pig which was too big of scope to shoot independently, so the filmmaker took one character and developed a movie about him.The portrayal of the character of the Bakerman by Mikkel Vadsholt won him the BEST MALE ACTOR AWARD at the Nordic International Film Festival in New York.
A Nordic FALLING DOWN, Jens (Mikkel Vadsholdt) has accepted far too much for too long. Being the shy night-owl he is, he keeps to himself, but the world will not let him be. The new master baker's quality starts slackening, and when a bunch of yobs one day smash the window of Jens's car, he takes one of them out. Intoxicated by his own new unexpressed vigour, Jens comes out of his shell, but the destructive driving force leads him towards a free fall. A film that is as shocking with its vigilante story as it is captivating with its determination. Headed by Mikkel Vadsholdt, who here manages to arouse our empathy in a role of a reserved man who has difficulty coping with the light of day.
