The poor soldier Ludvig Kahlen (Mads Mikkelsen) arrives in 1755 in the barren Jutland Sheden with one goal: to follow the king’s call to farm the land and thereby gain wealth and glory. But Kahlen quickly makes an enemy. The merciless landowner Frederik De Schinkel, who is sole ruler of the area. De Schinkel believes that the heath belongs to him and not to the king.
Kahlen does not back down but stubbornly takes up the unequal battle and now risks both his life, but also the bond with the small troubled family that has arisen around him on the moor.
