Master of the House background

Master of the House

A patriarch's harsh treatment of his family sparks a chain reaction, culminating in a transformative shift as the women of the household take bold action to teach him the value of gratitude.

Victor Frandsen, a domestic tyrant, forces his wife Ida to work as a slave, rising early, toiling all day, and sewing at night to earn extra money. His behavior is detested by his nanny, Mads, who convinces Ida's mother to take Ida away to save her from a breakdown. When Victor discovers Ida is gone, he's angry and accusatory, but eventually learns to take an active part in domestic work under Mads' guidance, earning him the right to reunite with Ida once he's fully changed.
