Four struggling school teacher friends embark on an experiment to see how their performance is affected by drinking ever-increasing amounts of alcohol during their working day. Mid-life crises and booze form a potent cocktail in this Oscar-winning Danish black comedy, with great performances, especially Mads Mikkelsen.

Jesmark inherits his colourful but leaking fishing boat from a long line of seamen going back to his great grandfather. But with mounting bills and a small child in need of special care, Jesmark is at breaking point. He is tempted to sell his family boat and join a black market operation that’s decimating the Mediterranean fish population and the livelihoods of local families. This film is both a commentary on the darker side of globalisation and modern commerce. Interestingly the cast are largely non professional actors from this way of life that is in crisis.

A wonderful story of a little known series of events that took place in 1961. A marvellous cast take you inside a family where the campaigning, stand up for the underdog husband, exasperated wife and two sons, one caring the other with his girlfriend fully embracing the spirit of the sixties, take on the establishment in an unusual way. A fun filled film with heart and a great backdrop of northern Britain in the 60s.
