Kvinden Fra Brest - La Fille de Brest

The woman from Brest
Irène Frachon (Sidse Babett Knudsen), an energetic Danish lung specialist, is employed at the university hospital in Brest in northern France. She discovers that a widely distributed diet pill contains a molecule that apparently causes fatal heart attacks. Her thesis is met with massive disbelief by both the authorities and the pharmaceutical industry, but Irène fights tirelessly to bring the truth to light - not least for the sake of her patients.
