69
In 2007, the squatter house Ungdomshuset on Jagtvej 69 in Copenhagen was cleared by the police. Subsequently, violent riots broke out in the streets of Copenhagen. This documentary film follows the young people's fight from the inside during the last six months. 69 is a film about youth, rebellion and radicalization.

AGE OF STUPID
Engaging, thought-provoking and entertaining. Age of Stupid is the best film so far on the climate issue. The responsibility is unmistakably assigned. Come and find out if you are part of the problem or part of the solution to the climate problems.

BRONSON
Meet Britain’s most violent man – better known as Charles Bronson ¬ in Nicolas Winding Refn’s newest film. It is a personal portrait of a violence-powered psychopath – a laboured and stylistically consistent violence cabaret with a great soundtrack.

BURN AFTER READING
The Coen brothers' absurdly funny spy comedy in which Brad Pitt and Frances McDormand shine as the foolhardy fitness centre employees who try to blackmail a former CIA agent and get into quite a mess.

THE CHILDREN
Two families celebrate the Christmas holidays in the country with their blended children. Yet, slowly the children start behaving in a strange and ruthless manner and the holiday develops into an extraordinary nightmare of the worst kind. The Children is by far the creepiest scary movie for years.

THE DARK KNIGHT
Watch last year's absolute action roar! It was fully deserved that Heath Ledger won an Oscar for the role of the cruelly evil and anarchistic Joker in this adrenalin rush and intense nightmare vision.

DE VILDE HJERTER (the wild hearts)
A group of young lads go off on their mopeds. And you are going with them. On the way, they explore manhood, brotherhood and freedom – where men want to be men and dreams are to be realised.

DEAD SNOW
Norwegians fighting Nazi zombies is always worth a trip to the cinema. Get ready for some blood-red snow.

D.I.Y. FILM CLUB
D.Y.I. Filmklub has moved from Copenhagen to Roskilde Cinema ’09. They show homemade films – from the documentary genre to cracked-up B-screen films with slime-dripping zombies or perhaps raw chicken speared with baseball bats. If you want to watch the film world get smacked around then come and curl your toes to our show. Do It Yourself.

FATSO
Humour of the worst kind. There is plenty of pizza-eating, masturbating and day-dreaming on the way to a place in Guinness World Records. It is not funny – it is hysterical!

GONE WITH THE WOMAN
The screen adaptation of Erlend Loe's debut novel is a wonderfully funny, Norwegian comedy which ironically portrays a young man's troubles in love. It is about, a.o., the therapeutic thing about a blue pool, about having sex wearing a diver's mask and about a much needed Parisian affair.

HUSH LITTLE BABY
Four girls on rehab run away from an outing with their treatment home. During their escape, they are forced to take responsibility for their own lives. What starts as a leap of fun ends as a revenge rampage and unravelling the girls’ dark pasts.
