The Hunt (Danish: Jagten) is a 2012 Danish psychological drama film[4][5] directed by Thomas Vinterberg and starring Mads Mikkelsen. Set in a small Danish village around Christmas, the film follows a man named Lucas, a divorced kindergarten teacher who becomes the target of mass hysteria after being wrongly accused of sexually abusing a child in his class.[1][6]

The film gained critical acclaim for Mikkelsen's performance and Vinterberg's direction. Many have described it as one of the best psychological drama films of its time.[7] It was competed at the 65th Cannes Film Festival, where Mikkelsen won the Best Actor Award for his role,[8][9] and was also screened at the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival, among other film festivals.[10] It won the 2013 Nordic Council Film Prize and was one of the nominees for Best Foreign Language Film at the 71st Golden Globe Awards.[11] It was the Danish entry for the Best Foreign Language Film category at the 86th Academy Awards[12][13] and was selected as one of the final five nominees.[14]
