Director Martin Zandvliet On Making Buzzy Canneseries TV Drama ‘Harvest’ & Comparisons With ‘Succession’: “This Is A Whole Different Atmosphere”
Land of Mine director Martin Zandvliet has just arrived back in Copenhagen after witnessing his debut television show, Harvest, premiere at Canneseries. Two episodes of the seven-part drama out of Denmark screened in competition, giving the audience an early taste of a show that hasn’t yet locked edits on later eps.
Billed as ‘Succession with tractors’ (not a moniker Vandliet is particularly fond of), the series stars the likes of Katrine Greis-Rosenthal, Elliott Crosset Hove, Lars Brygmann, and follows the story of a farming family at war. It kicks off when relatives gather to celebrate patriarch Gorm’s 65th birthday, but his decision to turn the family farm Feldumgaard over to his youngest daughter, Astrid (Greis-Rosenthal), bypassing his eldest son, Erik (Crosset Hove), tears the family apart.
