Børghild, the strongest person in Denmark, embarks on a quest to destroy Copenhagen’s evil slaughterhouse and punch its owner right in the face. A brand new, pitch-black comedy about the nature of violence and vengeance, Børghild is quite possibly the greatest Denmark-based revenge-play of all time.
