The Passion of Marie is a 2012 Danish film directed by Bille August, starring Birgitte Hjort Sørensen and Søren Sætter-Lassen. Its original Danish title is Balladen om Marie, which means "The Ballad of Marie". It tells the story of the stormy relationship between Marie and Peder Severin Krøyer, two of the Skagen Painters, in the late 19th century.
Based on the 1999 novel by Anastassia Arnold, The Passion of Marie was Bille August's first Danish film production since Pelle the Conqueror from 1987. It was produced through SF Film Production—the Danish subsidiary of AB Svensk Filmindustri—with support from the Danish Film Institute. It received 1.75 million Norwegian kronor from Nordisk Film & TV-Fond. Principal photography began in August 2011, on location in Skagen and Marstrand.
The film was released in Denmark on 15 November 2012 through SF Film Distribution.
