When one thinks of the best countries for cinema, Denmark does not immediately leap to mind. And yet, the country has been the source of some of the last decade's most intriguing movies, from psychological dramas to experimental documentaries. Going back even further, Danish cinema was actually the leading country in Europe for film in the 1910s. The '90s were also a fertile decade for Danish directors, seeing the rise of the film movement known as Dogme 95. All this means that contemporary Danish filmmakers have a rich cinematic tradition to draw on.
