DK/USA: Danish Filmmakers Look at Our America

Since 1980, the Danish Film Institute and the Danish Film Workshop have actively supported the work of Danish film and video makers. Workshops held throughout Denmark each year seek out and encourage the creation of independent work. For some reason, Danish documentary filmmakers have produced a number of titles that take as their subject Americans and the United States. The films in this series look at our American landscapes and communities from a distinctly Danish point of view, challenging our assumptions about America.
