Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Hella Joof was primarily known as a comedian and TV host before this, her feature debut — she basically Danish-army-knifed her way into filmmaking.
The film captures a specific 2000s Danish comedy wave where criminal lowlifes were portrayed as lovable doofuses — think 'Pusher' if everyone had a peanut allergy and anxiety.
