In Doctor von Trier's Laboratory: Back to the Magic of Cinema

German/French TV documentary portraying Danish film director Lars von Trier.

The Idiots Who Started The Party

Danish film has never felt stronger on the international stage than it did with the Dogme films, which at the world premiere of 'The Party' and 'The Idiots' during the Cannes Film Festival in 1998 put Denmark on the film world map. Another eight films under the strict Dogme rules followed and created great international careers for several of the talents in front of and behind the handheld camera. Thomas Vinterberg, Søren Kragh-Jacobsen, Paprika Steen, Ulrich Thomsen, Trine Dyrholm, Iben Hjejle, Anders W. Berthelsen, Lone Scherfig, Sonja Richter and many more of the country's greatest filmmakers look back on when Denmark became Dogme.

When Danish Film Crosses the Line

Sex, animal cruelty, Jesus and politics! Movies evoke emotions - some more than others. In this documentary, Maria Månson explores the Danish films that have outraged, angered, provoked... and have put Denmark on the cinematic map. This is a celebration of those who dared to step across the accepted border between good and bad.
