Pelle the Conqueror – A Journey of Resilience and Hope

In the late 1850s, the elderly emigrant Lasse Karlsson and his son Pelle reach the Danish island of Bornholm after leaving Skåne County, in southern Sweden, following the death of the boy’s mother. Lasse finds it difficult to secure work, given his advanced age and Pelle’s youth. They are forced to toil at a large farm, where they are generally mistreated by the managers.

Struggles and Friendships – Finding Strength in Adversity

The managers work under the tyrannical Kongstrup, who has a history of affairs with female employees, resulting in illegitimate children. Among such children is Rud, who befriends Pelle and helps him learn Danish. Eventually, Pelle becomes more confident and begins attending school, though he is still discriminated against as a foreigner. Pelle also befriends the Swedish worker Erik, who is constantly harassed for alleged sloth. Erik shares his dream of visiting America, China, and “Negroland” with Pelle, aiming to “conquer” the world. Rud runs away after poor performance at school, but Pelle begins to excel.

Darkness and Light – A Tale of Betrayal and Redemption

After Kongstrup impregnates Mrs. Kongstrup’s visiting niece Miss Sine, his wife castrates him for his abuses. Lasse begins an affair with Mrs. Olsen, believed to be a widow since her husband has not returned from a long sea voyage. Pelle is teased at school for his father’s affair. At the farm, Erik is injured and disabled after attempting to lead a revolt against management. Mrs. Olsen’s husband returns from his voyage, and Lasse is overcome with depression and alcoholism. The two appeal to the Kongstrups for aid against their harassment. Mrs. Kongstrup offers support, but her husband remains silent. Pelle receives a promotion but, after witnessing Erik forced from the farm, vows to leave. Lasse initially resolves to go with him, before deciding he is too old to travel. He sends Pelle alone into the world.
