Setting
This film came about whilst in Denmark, there was an intense debate whether censorship should remain and meddle in, what (foreign) classic erotic literature could be translated and published together with similar upcoming domestic works, or which age group could be considered allowed to watch films of interest to youth.[1]
Synopsis and critics reception
The story is a classic triangle drama about Mikael, a medicine student, who the casual liberal man he thinks he is, works extra at a strip club, where he meets and falls in love with Tina. She dreams of a film career, and works extra as an assistant and mistress for an older cynical film director Claes. When Mikael finds out, confused and hurt, he rather surprisingly challenges Claes to a duel.
The film received positive reviews for being the first Danish film in a long time to believe in something and shed light on moral and social issues of the time.[1]
