Pusher is a Danish crime thriller following Frank, a small-time drug dealer caught in a spiral of desperation. After a botched deal leaves him owing a massive debt to his ruthless supplier, Frank must navigate the dangerous streets of Copenhagen while evading police and scrambling to raise the money before time runs out. With nowhere to turn and every option closing in, he's forced into increasingly reckless moves that threaten to destroy everything around him. Director Nicolas Winding Refn crafts a gritty, unflinching portrait of addiction and survival in the criminal underworld, where one mistake can be fatal. The film's raw intensity and claustrophobic tension make it a standout entry in 1990s European crime cinema.
