| Abstract: | Denmark/Canada Two of the oldest short film institutions in the world have recently completed a co-production of a bilateral nature. The National Film Board of Canada and Statens Filmcentral, Denmark, both established in 1939, are ready to distribute the film New Denmark. This 16mm film has been produced on a fifty-fifty basis by two Danish-born film-makers, Torben Schiøler and Andreas Poulsson, working at the National Film Board. The 30 minute documentary concerns the lifestyle of a small society of third generation Danish residents living in the Atlantic region of North East Canada where the Danish language is still used, and other cultural traditions are still maintained. |
