In 1960s Denmark, an alcoholic playboy and a meek tax lawyer join forces to revolutionize the travel industry and alter the country’s political landscape, in this shocking, often hysterical, always compelling quasi-biopic.
Since his Camera d’Or-winning debut feature Reconstruction, Christoffer Boe has explored the power of memory — and its capacity to mould an individual’s perception of reality. With his latest, the sometimes shocking, always-compelling quasi-biopic Sex, Drugs & Taxation, he examines collective memory, which, as it turns out, is equally as prone to delusion.

In 1960s Denmark, alcoholic playboy Simon Spies (Pilou Asbaek) and tax lawyer Mogens Glistrup (Nicolas Bro) both feel like outsiders. Together they form a partnership and set out to take over an airline, in the process changing not only aviation but the country’s political landscape.

A surreal buddy movie gone awry, Sex, Drugs & Taxation reminds us that recent history is packed with ironies. A national symbol for sixties’ decadence, Spies was perceived as a revolutionary hedonist who gave the miracle of flight to the masses by creating the region’s first discount airline. Conversely, the arch-conservative Glistrup, despite his completely unpredictable political victories, was considered an embarrassing failure. Yet neither would have thrived without the other. At the heart of the movie is an unusual, influential and doomed friendship — a tragedy with tax laws and copious amounts of booze and LSD. Boe crafts an atmosphere that oscillates between stoned amazement and a creeping sense of horror.

The post Christoffer Boe – Spies & Glistrup AKA Sex, Drugs & Taxation (2013) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

Sara, the daughter of a Jehovah’s Witness, is forced to choose between religion and love when she falls for someone outside her faith.

This film is based on a true story. It is one of the finest films I have seen on the Jehovah’s Witnesses and social control. In the last scene, the girl in the train who looks up and smiles at Sara is the “real life-Sara”. The director got the inspiration for the film from reading her story in a national Danish newspaper in 2006.

Quote:
Company commander Claus M. Pedersen (Pilou Asbæk) and his men are stationed in an Afghan province. Meanwhile back in Denmark Claus’ wife Maria (Tuva Novotny) is trying to hold everyday life together with a husband at war and three children missing their father. During a routine mission, the soldiers are caught in heavy crossfire and in order to save his men, Claus makes a decision that has grave consequences for him – and his family back home.

Quote:
This is Lindholm’s followup to his highly acclaimed debut “A Hijacking,” and follows a group of Danish soldiers in Afghanistan and the morally complex decisions they face while in a war zone.
Pilou Asbæk’s lead performance and Lindholm’s incredible talent to create compelling and challenging human narratives around divisive issues have garnered critical acclaim. The film premiered at the most recent Venice Film Festival.

The official synopsis for the film describes it as follows: “Company commander Claus M. Pedersen (Pilou Asbæk) and his men are stationed in an Afghan province. Meanwhile back in Denmark Claus’ wife Maria (Tuva Novotny) is trying to hold everyday life together with a husband at war and three children missing their father. During a routine mission, the soldiers are caught in heavy crossfire and in order to save his men, Claus makes a decision that has grave consequences for him – and his family back home.”
International sales are being handled by Studiocanal. Magnolia Pictures has U.S. rights.

Denmark was last nominated in the category back in 2014 with Thomas Vinterberg’s “The Hunt,” a film that Lindholm co-wrote. The last time the Scandinavian nation won the award was back in 2011 with Susanne Bier’s “In a Better World.”
