Himself
야코브 노셀은 총명하지만, 모두가 꿈꾸는 아이의 모습은 아니다. 그는 뇌성마비 장애인이다. 병약한 육체와 정상적인 지능을 지닌 야코브는 ‘무엇이 정상인가’라는 문제의 전형성을 보여준다. 그는 사회가 그를 완전히 받아들이기엔 너무나 허약하지만, 그의 운명을 수긍하고 체념하기엔 또 ‘너무나’ 평범하다. 야코브는 현대사회에서 대부분의 사람들이 인식하는 ‘정상성’에 대한 개념을 재정의하고 탐구하며, 도전하려 한다. EIDF 2016 페스티벌 초이스 출품작

Maybe the best thing to come out of Scandinavia during the hippie years was, in fact, the story of a radical libertarian and a hedonist capitalist. Their friendship, forged by being outsiders in a conformist country, took them through years of adulation and success, with slight detours into the welcoming arms of vilification and imprisonment. A joyride through taxation, mass travel, hookers and politics. Not feeling too constrained by historical facts, director Christoffer Boe's story of Simon Spies and Mogens Glistrup covers just a few of their decades in a tale of warmth and humour, defiance and eccentricity.

The unflinching tale of Maria, Allan and Steso, who are struggling for survival. Maria is a pusher frau, wandering restlessly among addicts, abusers and bikers in a relentless search for love. Allan has just returned from an ill-fated trip across the Pacific and must reclaim his life and stay clean, but ghosts from his past return to haunt him. Steso, the intellectual, god-forsaken and prophetic cynic, does his utmost to unite the two polar opposites that give meaning to his life: his girl and drugs. All three try desperately to make some sense of the madness, but how do you find meaning in the chaos that is life? And how do you find love if you can't recognize it?
In 1958, a young Egon Olsen tries to escape from the orphanage by being adopted by a rich couple - but his new "parents" are rocket scientists who want to shoot him into space.
