The Red Cross sells stamps to Danish citizens on Red Cross Day, and the purpose of the film is to tell why no one is allowed to say no. You follow the Youth Red Cross, where the young people learn how to patch the injured together. Then you visit some of the kindergartens and homes where the Red Cross has trained nurses to take care of children. The Red Cross also runs a folk health center at Hald, where the regular population, for a small fee, are treated for diseases that require careful medical care. In addition, the Red Cross also helps to take care of the Allied refugees, just as they attend large numbers of large-scale events where Samaritans are needed. In bombed-out Poland, there is a strong need for the Red Cross, which responds by sending car convoys, ships and planes away to help.

In 1950, Danmarks Radio sent a journalist to an orphanage by the North Sea. Here he interviewed Palle, ten years old, who tells of a family life that was so burdened by violence, failure and loneliness that he could not stay at home. The director behind this documentary has dug up the sound recording from DR's archive, and with the help of animation she has given her own suggestion of how the touching interview could have looked in pictures.

A loyal pack animal from a nomadic tribe has his courage tested, when taken down a challenging, unfamiliar path by his ailing human.

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?

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.
