Simon Sears, Morten Hee Andersen, Ann Eleonora Jørgensen, Lars MikkelsenAusgehend von der biblischen Geschichte von Kain und Abel nähert sich die Serie verschiedensten Glaubenskonzepten, gefiltert durch die 250 Jahre umfassende Geschichte einer Priesterfamilie in Dänemark: Pfarrer Joahnnes (Lars Mikkelsen) ist wie ein Gott für seine zwei Söhne. Doch während Johannes August (Morten Hee Andersen) eindeutig favorisiert, ist er von Christian (Simon Sears) konstant enttäuscht. In ihrem aussichtslos erscheinenden Kampf um Anerkennung bzw. Erlösung von den Erwartungen des Vaters treffen die Söhne zunehmend verzweifeltere Entscheidungen, die sie schließlich auf die verschiedenste Schlachtfelder dieser Erde führen.
Herrens Veje centres on a family of priests that traces its roots back more than 250 years: Johannes, Elisabeth, and their sons, August and Christian. Johannes is God-like to his sons – he gives, takes, loves and punishes. His favouritism for August and his disappointment with Christian forces both into making desperate choices in order to either gain his love or break free from him. Their path will lead us into war and encounters between different religions, seen through the intimate lens of a family drama.Herrens Veje explores good and evil and the spiritual journey towards seeking a greater meaning in life – because we all want to believe in something when a storm is approaching.
