Summary
Lykke-Per is a novel by Danish Nobel Prize-winning author Henrik Pontoppidan published in eight volumes between 1898 and 1904. It is considered one of the major Danish novels, and in 2004 it was made part of the Danish Culture Canon. The novel tells the story of Per Sidenius a self-confident bright young man who breaks with his religious family in order to become an engineer to construct energy saving wind turbines. However, at the height of his success, his family background catch up with him and he gives up his career and his love for a wealthy and intelligent Jewess. A major theme of the story is the relation of ``luck`` to ``happiness``, the Danish word lykke means both.85

Film costumes have an important role to play
“Costumes must be so distinct, that the audience can recognise the film’s characters based on their appearance. Costumes must support the psychological nature of the acting characters, but at the same time be discreet enough to not distract from the actor’s expressions and presence.”
