New Danish Screen 2

New Danish Screen 2 (Fremkaldt, Væk fra Spjald, Om natten)
Exposure:

The visually remarkable and sophisticated story about the photographer Nikolaj is set in a no man’s land between fantasy and reality. He tries to sustain his relationship to his girlfriend Rikke, but flirts with Laura, a charismatic and attractive girl who once was his puppy love. Nikolaj’s brother Tobias, who is mentally ill, interferes in the events, and the old rivalry of the two brothers is rekindled.



Getting out:

Kirsten lives together with her 18-year-old son Dennis. One day, Dennis is lucky enough to have his life’s biggest dream come true: he gets the chance to sing in a talent show on TV. During the show, his mother sits at home in her provincial village’s quagmire of morals and duties, and she is watching the show when Dennis suddenly reveals a secret. This film shows that one should stand by one’s ideals and strike while the iron is hot.



At Night:

The film is set in the period between Christmas and New Year and is about three girls between 18 and 20, who are hospitalised with cancer. All three of them have serious problems, not just in terms of health, but also in terms of their relationships with their nearest and dearest. The girls find a haven in each other’s company, where they are free from the fear of death and loneliness, and a substantial part of the film describes their sense of humour, unrestrained candidness and uncompromising zest for life.
