After weeks of traveling through Europe, the immature William finds himself in Copenhagen, a place where he expects to find his long-lost grandfather. One day, in a hotel cafe, he befriends the much-younger Effy, who works there as a waitress. Intrigued by William's mission, Effy eagerly joins him, showing him the colorful city of Copenhagen while they go.

Mark Raso’s first feature, Copenhagen, takes on a taboo — great for high-stakes storytelling, if it’s not used to generate empty shock. Worry not: His absorbing film has a delicate nuance that will linger after the popcorn’s gone.
Copenhagen remains more intriguing than compelling.
Los Angeles Times by Martin Tsai
The will-he-or-won't-he question becomes the focus of director Mark Raso's film, and how William responds under the mercy of Effy's whims ultimately determines whether he can emerge from his self-absorption at long last.
Village Voice by Serena Donadoni
[An] exquisitely beautiful feature debut.

In its best moments, Copenhagen, the debut feature of Mark Raso, who also wrote the script, takes place in that dream space.
The Hollywood Reporter by Stephen Farber
