“Troldehjertes Hemmelighed”

The Danish national broadcaster Danmarks Radio has launched a 8 episode childrens / teenage serie taking place in  the 1850’s.

Doc: “Hitlers hemmelige Danmarksbilleder”

The national Danish broadcaster DR is telling an yet untold story about Hilters personal photographer, Walter Frentz, and his journey through Denmark in the summer of 1943. What he documented at this time, showed out to have an great impact on Hitler’s ledership from there on.

It was quite an intens experience having to re-create a dinner table party for Hitlers presence. Moreover to be able to retrieve real items from the time i.e curtesy of Engholm Museum’s extensive World War II collection, my search became just mind blowing. Suddenly history book came alive. I’m proud to be able to assist a talented team to be able to tell this amazing story. Premiere January 8th 2020.

In 2017 the national broadcaster DR choose to dedicate the year “Denmark’s historical year”. Along several other productions, “Turn back the time to the 70s” was created to tell the story about life in 4 social layers characterized by the decade.
It was a great pleasure for me to create this part of the a visual history book with such sharp factual angle. The 4 locations were situated in Copenhagen and suburbs, we visited a detached house, a collective, an apartment in a building block and finally a 2 room appartement.
