Inherent

A beautifully shot rural film about a woman who is up to something involving blood. To reveal anything else about this wild and unsettling tale would be a shame, as it must be seen to be believed.

Denmark 2021 / 16:00 / Director: Nicolai G. H. Johansen

The Climate Warrior

A young and passionate person hurls herself into the war for climate change and a strongly relevant drama full of youthful energy is the result.

Denmark 2022/ 16:00 / Director: Anna van Deurs

Min Far forfra

A daughter has invited her estranged father to participate in different games in a studio to let them both reflect on the divorce that has deprived them of sharing her childhood. A playful and tender experiment, where Danish divorce-culture is turned on its head, and father and daughter meet each other anew.

Denmark 2015 / 30:00 / Director: Nicoline Skotte

Untamed

The streets at night; a slow saxophone plays. A howling wolf roams the city. Dad is on the loose. Sally, an introverted 15-year-old girl, tries to tame her wolf father, who has lost himself in the wilderness.

Denmark 2015 / 16:00 / Director: Juliette Viger
