A Study of Empathy

Dana welcomes art student Penelope into her home to do a performance with an open mind. The episode leaves Dana more than confused about what happened today in her apartment, and she goes to Penelope's exhibition to clear her mind.

Persona Non Grata

The film is a comedy drama about a young woman, Laura, who has distanced herself from her family in the country to settle in Copenhagen as an author and live the artistic bohemian life she has always dreamed of. When she, with much reluctance, goes back home for her brother’s wedding, she realises that he is about to marry her childhood enemy, Catrine. At the same time, Laura finds out that Catrine has in fact taken over her place in the family – and what if Laura wants it back … A film about how we, no matter how hard we try, cannot escape from our past, nor from our roots.

All Work No Play

Gourmet

Nikoline unfolds female desire in a way that she feels has been lacking. The video is a showdown with society's attempt to tame and reduce women's sexuality to something passively receptive with whore/Madonna complexes and systematic shaming. For Nikoline, the woman is active and volcanic – from smoldering pheromone ecstasy to explosive and untamed wildness.
