What Lies Between Us

★ 10.0/10•2026•1h 47m•Drama

A quiet suburban community is shaken by the alleged sexual assault of a teenage boy by two of his peers. As the town reels, successful real estate agent Anne Sofie discovers her own son may be more involved than she imagined. Determined to protect him and the family's reputation, she makes a choice that sets her on a collision course with the other boys' mothers, Sarah and Ulrikke. As accusations against her son begin to spread, the pressure mounts and to shield her family, Anne Sofie pins the blame on one of the other boys. But as her relationships fracture and her moral compass wavers, she’s forced to make a life-altering decision.
