Penge som græs

The heavy prison door in Vridsløse opens, and freedom beckons once again to counterfeiter P. Krone-Strøm. He has served an eight-year sentence, but believes it was a miscarriage of justice.

Now it is not money that is lacking in society, but labor and goods.

South of Tana River

A plane lands one day at Nairobi Airport in Kenya, and among the passengers is a young Danish girl, Eva Axelson, who immediately takes a carriage to the famous Hotel Norfolk.

The film explores the nature and origin of the guilt that repeatedly deprived him of happiness.
