‘Brave New Love’ Review: Infidelity Isn’t the End in an Unusual, Open-Minded Marital Drama

“I would never fall in love if I was in a good relationship.” So says one participant in the women’s church group where Copenhagen-based wife and mother Kate (Kathrine Thorborg Johansen) confesses that she’s been having a three-year affair with another man, and doesn’t much regret it.
