Against all odds, von Spreckelsen had emerged as the unlikely winner of the competition, propelled from obscurity in Denmark to the helm of a pharaonic project in Paris. His uncompromising vision would  soon collide with political maneuvering, bureaucratic obstacles and the harsh realities of construction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tThe historical drama starring <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/tag\/claes-bang\/\" id=\"auto-tag_claes-bang\" data-tag=\"claes-bang\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Claes Bang<\/a> as von Spreckelsen made its world premiere in the Un Certain Regard section at last spring\u2019s Cannes Film Festival and is set for a U.S. domestic premiere at this year\u2019s AFI Fest on Sunday at 8 pm.
