Vinterberg, together with Lars von Trier, revolutionized the language of cinema in 1998 when the magnificent “Celebration” came out. “When a man comes home” is the returning of his more intimate world.
A small provincial town is buzzing with excitement: the town's most illustrious son, a world-famous opera singer, is coming home. That visit will turn the town upside down, specially Sebastian’s life, who is a kitchen boy who falls head over heels in love with the new maid.
