1864 is a Danish drama (with hard-coded English subtitles) that takes place in.........can you guess? From wiki: "The series takes place over around a decade in the 1850's and 1860's. The focus is on two brothers, Peter and Laust Jensen. Both in love with the same woman (Inge Juel), they join the army in the nationalistic fervour of 1863. The events are framed by those in the present, involving the infirm great-grandson of one of the historical protagonists. The series is also about the Second Schleswig War between Denmark and Prussia and Austria which ended in 1864 with Denmark conceding around 25% of its territory to the Prussian and Austrian armies. This outcome had a profound effect on Denmark, setting the country's course for its modern development. It is the most expensive Danish TV series to be made."
I haven't seen all of this yet, but can say that the cinematography and editing is quite impressive.
