Danish Film Weeks 2022 returns to Vietnam

The Danish Film Weeks will return to Hanoi, Hue, Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City between July 1-14, with a collection of six interesting and thought-provoking films from prominent Danish filmmakers.

According to Ambassador of Denmark to Vietnam, Kim Højlund Christensen, the Danish Film Weeks is part of their celebration of the 51st anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

"This year, we are not only celebrating our history together, but also looking ahead into the future as we wish to further strengthen our partnership with Vietnam in various areas, including trade, green growth, renewable energy, food safety, education and culture,’ he said.

For the past five years, the Danish Film Weeks has become a popular cultural brand among cinema-lovers in various cities in Vietnam and helped build a bridge between Vietnamese people and Denmark.

‘The Good Traitor’, ‘The Purity of Vengeance’, ‘That Time of Year’, ‘A Perfectly Normal Family’, ‘Daniel’ and ‘Land of Mine’ represent the high quality of Danish film production within recent years. They have all won several awards and nominations at Danish and international prestigious film festivals.
