Summary of Kingdom
In 1997 Danish director Lars von Trier produced a second set of episodes for his unique and compelling TV show, THE KINGDOM. The action once again takes places in the creepy surroundings of Copenhagen's Kingdom hospital, and begins at the exact point where the first series ended. Judith (Birgitte Raaberg) has given birth to a disfigured baby, Doctor Helmer (Ernst-Hugo Jֳ₪regֳ¥rd) is facing a malpractice charge and has started practicing voodoo, and demonic forces are at work throughout the decrepit institution.
