Det andet liv
Jonas Elmer
Sofie Gråbøl, Petrine Agger
In every moment we make choices that define our being; choices that create shapes and patterns and carve out our lives. Until the pattern is broken – by faith, decision or coincidence. In Real Life is about such moments, where lives are drastically changed. As a multi-plot drama, created out of three years of acting improvisations, In Real Life follows three story threads with characters who come together by internet dating and by their persistent search for some kind of meaning in life between love and sheer survival.
In Real Life
Rocking Silver
Erik Clausen
Leif Sylvester, Erik Clausen
Old rockers, like soldiers, never die, they only pass away. Well, Erik Clausen turns nostalgia into a vivid tribute to the moods and manners of the 1950s Danish Rock'n Roll by picking up a group of dispersed fellow bandsmen from wherever life and fate have left them stranded to have them revive their group and relive the good old days. A spirit of social solidarity permeates throughout.

When she is offered a temporary assignment — in the middle of nowhere — to restructure a manufacturing plant, she jumps at the opportunity, knowing that a big promotion is close at hand.

New in Town
Nynne
Jonas Elmer
Mille Dinesen, Stine Stengade
The life of Nynne is based on GUCCI bags and Chanel products, carpaccio and countless visits to cafés, loose relationships with men who screams 'good luck!' when they cum, unused memberships to the local gym and a lenient relationship with mixing champagne, white wine, red wine, cognac, gin, tequila and beer. It goes with out saying: Nynne has yet to experience her Kodak moment.
Nynne
Det sublime
Jonas Elmer
Bjarne Henriksen, Peter Hesse Overgaard
In the old days, things were different. Art, too. It assembled and passed on human experience and knowledge. But in today's Denmark, something else is wanted from art. It has to experiment and break new ground. It is almost a political requirement. The more conventional the politics, the harsher the politically correct requirements for the artist. Sliced up, rotting pigs are not enough anymore! Art must move on. But how can the poor artist surpass his predecessors and become a success?
The Art of Success
