Another Round (2020)
Another Round (Druk) is a Danish drama film directed by Thomas Vinterberg, starring Mads Mikkelsen, Thomas Bo Larsen, Magnus Millang, and Lars Ranthe. The film explores the lives of four middle-aged high school teachers who decide to experiment with a theory suggesting that maintaining a constant blood alcohol level can improve their lives.
Led by Martin (Mads Mikkelsen), a history teacher facing a midlife crisis and a sense of monotony in his work and personal life, the group begins consuming alcohol during the day to see if it enhances their creativity, productivity, and happiness. 
At first, the results seem promising, as the men become more engaged and energetic, feeling a renewed sense of purpose. However, as their drinking escalates, the experiment spirals out of control, leading to both personal and professional consequences.
