Trailer for A Somewhat Gentle Man, which screened at Fantastic Fest 2010.
On his release from prison after serving 12 years for the murder of his wife’s lover, Ulrik just wants to settle down to a quiet and normal life and to try to get to know his son again. For the most part, he’s mild-mannered and easygoing, and just wants to get along with everyone. But there are complications.
For one thing, there’s the snitch who got him put away—his pals and former boss don’t think it’s right for a rat to go unpunished. Then there are the ladies. They can’t seem to get enough of him, and he just can’t say no. And worst of all is his son, who he is anxious to reconnect with, but who simply doesn’t want him around.
