Paperback. Profiling the canonized figures alongside recently-established filmmakers, this collection features interviews with Lars von Trier, Sooren Kragh-Jacobsen, Thomas Vinterberg and Henning Carlsen among many others.

Each interview is preceded by a photograph of the director, biographical information, and a filmography. Frame enlargements are used throughout to help clarify particular points of discussion and the book as a whole is contextualised by an informative general introduction. A valuable addition to the growing library of books on Scandinavian film, national cinema and minority cinema. In response to the resurgence of Danish film, this book presents a collection of in-depth interviews with 19 of Denmark's finest film-makers.
