A cute little frog lands right in the middle of another frog family’s dinner. At first, the family is charmed by the adorable newcomer, but soon he begins to turn their lives upside-down. How can a frog so little be so badly behaved?

Blond-haired Victor Kristensen was as Danish as anyone, but he ended his life in Iraq as a suicide bomber for Islamic State. We follow in his footsteps from the suburban neighborhood in Aarhus to the Iraqi desert to seek answers as to what transformed a young man from a college student to a holy warrior. In the program, his mother, his friends, and his comrades-in-arms lift the veil for the first time and tell the story of Victor's jihad.

The corona year 2020 has been examined from all angles by the media. But what was it like to hold Ramadan in a year of restrictions, prohibitions and social distancing? Six young Muslims express their thoughts and feelings about a different kind of year when communal meals and prayer lines were replaced by a quarantine that pulls the individual relationship with God into focus. What can poetry and the quarantine of the heart teach us about a deeper meaning at a time when illness and fear are so predominant? And what kind of spirituality do we dare imagine in a society that moves further and further away from believing in God?

The sound artist Jacob Kirkegaard has travelled thousands of miles from El Paso to Tijuana, along the growing wall that separates Mexico and the United States. A man-made metal membrane that makes its own sounds and whose steel wires sing in the wind as it stretches across the landscape from the desert to the sea. In his meditative video and sound work, Kirkegaard has mounted microphones on and around the wall to understand its dual character as a militant monument and abstraction. Both panoramas and close-ups show us that this, at first sight, deserted area of south-western USA has its own life of light and shadow – and not least sound.

Authority, autonomy and one’s own complicity are elements in the transgressive situations that the artist Christian Falsnaes establishes in ‘Look at Me’, where he, in collaboration with the actress Minni Katrina Mertens, directs different groups of people at a night club, a gallery and an open-air festival. The boundary between subject and object – and between spectator and participant – is fleeting until you are finally invited on stage yourself. Throughout the entire proceedings, however, there is only one director. When Falsnaes and Mertens take turns to give both the others and each other instructions, it happens in an interplay where dominance and submission are the constants. ‘Look at Me’ embodies the kinds of soft and hard authority that we more or less consciously are subjected to everywhere in modern Western society, and it is made as both a documentary and a video work in its own right.

Privilege is the world’s largest EDM nightclub. A hedonistic paradise in Ibiza, where tourists and professional dancers live out both a collective and individual fantasy about freedom in an artificial setting. Freja Sofie Kirk and Esben Weile Kjær’s video work analyses the commercial logic deeply embedded in the promise of happiness – and the desire – upon which the entertainment industry is built. Privilege is also a workplace where young employees have clear roles in the machinery. The dancers’ bodies are transformed into scenographic objects, which melt together in a gigantic choreography that includes cranes and a giant inflatable shark. ‘Industries of Freedom’ also looks at nightlife from the inside, with the collective out-of-body experience taking on a transformative and ecstatic aspect – like a take on the great common rituals of our times.

In the summer of 2019, a group of youths from Syria, Turkey, England and Denmark meet up for a two-week theatre workshop in Antalya. Here, they are given the task of staging human rights in a collective performance. First, they must agree on how to interpret the rights, both artistically and politically – and then it suddenly makes a difference if you come from Syria or Denmark, even if you are not aware of it yourself. The director Camille Bildsøe observes with an attentive presence how empathy and tolerance come about during the process. And, not least, how both can make an active difference in the real world.

What if you could make a stand-up show that made us all better people? What if you could make a show that made us all more loving? What if you could make a show where we got better at telling people that we care about them? What if... I could just achieve that for myself? A show about figuring out: am I charitable... or almost loving?

The personal story of the greatest tragedy in Greenlandic maritime history, told by the grandson of one of the 95 passengers who lost their lives on the cold stormy night of January 30th, 1959, when M/S Hans Hedtoft - on its maiden voyage - allegedly hit an iceberg.

A little man builds a house on a giant floating head. The man and the head develop a friendship, talk about their days and try to figure out what to do with their lives.
