By the end of the film the worst is over, as the Royal family are driven through crowd-lined streets and kids enjoy a victory party.

Where is Greenland located? What does the country actually look like? Who lives there? What is life like there? The film seeks to answer these and similar questions by depicting life and nature around Greenland today, in the developing towns of the west coast, the less developed settlements of the east coast and the large Thule base in the far north. The film was intended to help placing and defining Greenland on the world map and in the minds of foreigners and Danes alike.

We call them, Divas. And some, remarkably stand out as women of sheer talent, star presence, and supreme success. Céline Dion is a name that needs no introduction. The little French Canadian singer gradually conquered hearts all around the world, including the one of her beloved one and only, René Angelil.

Documentary film about Tony Halme, masculinity and populism. The film follows how Tony Halme created a mythical, highly masculine freestyle wrestling character, The Viking, who gained fame both in the ring and in the public eye and eventually became captivated by it. With his brash speeches, Halme fired the starting shot for the rise of the Finns Party. The voice of a forgotten section of the population, a protest against the ruling elite, were the building blocks of Halme's popularity. Halme's great popularity has served as a good example of a populist figure, admired within the deep ranks of the nation, who comes from outside the political elite and changes the direction of politics. Also, despite - or perhaps because of - his openly racist statements, he was part of changing the political climate in Finland to a more acrimonious one.
