IMDB

Erik Nietzsche is an intelligent but in many ways inexperienced shy young man who is convinced that he wants to be a film director. In the late 1970s, Erik is accepted by the Danish National Film School where he enters a world of angry and unhelpful tutors, weird fellow students and unwritten rules. In this both exhilarating and angst-provoking period for him, Erik feels increasingly like a foreigner  but eventually will conquer with this world his vision.

The screening will be introduced by a short lecture about Lars von Trier.

In Danish with Czech subtitles.

Admission: 110 CZK
