Welcome to two magical weeks with BUSTER! BUSTER - Copenhagen International Film Festival for Children and Youth is looking forward to invite all children and adults into the magical world of film. Short films, feature films, youth films, documentaries, workshops, lectures; BUSTER has it all!

As something new, the festival will be going on for two whole weeks.

So there should be no excuse for not participating in the wonderful and fun events we have planned for you this year.

BUSTER Film Festival offers a unique opportunity for parents, schools and youth activity centers to take their children and students to the movies. The many events and films have been carefully chosen and planned to reflect the new school reform and aims at offering rich cultural experiences.

Grab a program or head on over to our website, spend about 15 minutes browsing the many exciting events and films, create an overview of what you want to see, and buy your tickets well in advance - Because they are going fast! In return we promise to offer you loads of magical films with thrilling stories that will both delight and educate the children, students etc. in ways that you cannot achieve in a classroom.

Denmark’s largest competition for young filmmakers, OREGON, and “BUSTER’s Media Academy”, that offers various workshops for schools, are also experiencing an increasing success around the country. We want to say a big thank you to the NORDEA Foundation for supporting the initiative, which is now in its third year.

Finally, we want to thank our audience, our generous sponsors, contributors, collaborators, cinemas, volunteers, interns, board of directors, friends and everyone who loves BUSTER and helps us make this festival happen every year!

We wish you all a fantastic and magical festival!

GALA

Opening Gala: Pettson and Findus - A Little Nuisance, A Great Friendship

Closing Gala: Crumbs - All at Stake

Old man Peddersen lives in a small red house far up in Sweden, where he likes to chop wood, make funny inventions, fish and take care of his chickens. One day, his thoughtful neighbour Beda gives him a cat to keep him a company. Peddersen gives it the name Findus, and when he finds out that the cat can talk, a long inseparable friendship begins. Peddersen’s other neighbour Gustavsen has problems with his rooster that crows all the time and it is about to end up in Beda’s large cooking pot, but she has pity on it and asks Peddersen to take it in. He does so with pleasure, but Findus is not thrilled and suddenly feels a little left out, now that the new rooster gets all the attention. A delightful adaptation of Sven Nordqvist’s beloved children’s books for children and the young at heart! Watch the movie trailer here.

There is always ordered chaos in the Crumb family.

Crumb is sad that he hasn’t got a bike, because his school has a race against the neighbouring school.

Mother is a teacher and will be fired if she doesn’t re-train for leadership. Father is a teacher at Crumb’s school and would rather just teach woodwork, where he can experiment with his inventions.

Isabella Juul

Josefine Hasbo

Oskar Wernegreen

My name is Aske Emil, I am 13 years old and I go to Maglehøjskolen. I live in both Copenhagen and in a smaller city outside Copenhagen called Ølstykke. I love theater, music and stand-up comedy. I like to play soccer too and although I am not very good at it I do not let that keep me from playing. Other than that, I spend a lot of time with my friends and I am really looking forward to be a part of the children’s jury on BUSTER Film festival.

My name is Isabella. I am 13 years old and I am in the 6th grade at Maglehøjskolen. I spend a lot of my free time with my friends and it is always a lot of fun. Apart from that, I am attending a church choir with a good friend of mine.

My dream for the future is to be a professional actress! I like to be a part of the children’s jury because I like almost every movie and sitcom I see. When a movie really gets to me I immerse myself and I love to do research on the actors’ real names, age etc. The genres I like the most are action, thrillers, comedy and definitely fantasy.

My name is Clara Emilie Kobbernagel and I go to Vallerødskolen which is located in Hørsholm north of Copenhagen. I am 12 years old and my birthday is in November. My main hobbies are horseback riding and competitive swimming. I love watching and talking about movies so I am very happy to be a part of the children’s jury at BUSTER and I look forward to the experience.

My name is Josefine and I am in 6th grade at Vallerødskolen. I live north of Copenhagen with my family in a city called Rungsted. I am 12 years old and my birthday is the 20th of November. I like to play soccer and I spend a lot of time playing for my club BSF on elite level. I love soccer, spending time with my friends and my family. Recently I’ve read Hunger games and I really like the series and also the films. I like talking about and discussing the films I see which is also the main reason I am happy to be a part of the children’s jury at BUSTER Film festival 2014.

My name is Isabella and I am 12 years old - I will turn 13 in the end of July. I love spending time with my friends and I love to do creative things in my free time. Other than that, I like watching movies and I spend a lot of time on it. My favorites are romantic movies because I like love a lot but I also enjoy watching a comedy. In a few days I am going to see ‘The fault in our stars”. After I read the book I really wanted to see the film. I am looking forward to be a part of the BUSTER children’s jury because I enjoy commenting on and reviewing movies.

My name is Oskar and I am 13 years old. In my free time I am a boy scout and I also like to do karate but when I’m not doing that I like spend time watching movies with my brothers and the rest of our family. I especially like the fantasy genre but I like almost every film genre. Besides watching movies I like watching sitcoms and series because they tell more detailed stories over a longer period of time. I find the story much more exciting and attractive that way.

In order to be reunited with his dearest Juliette, Proktor must invent something that will make him famous; but is it fart powder that can lead him to the stars?

Justin & the Knights of Valour

Nicholas on Holiday

The boy Justin doesn’t have it easy. He earnestly dreams about becoming a valiant knight, like all the brave heroes from the history books. But the lawyers have taken over power in the kingdom and the knights are no longer in high demand. In addition, Justin is neither big nor strong and has more in common with a bookworm than a mail-clad sword swinger. However, he is determined to make the dream a reality and embarks on a perilous quest that offers both eccentric wizards, hard hitting maidens and fire breathing dragons... of sorts. ‘Justin and the Knights of Valour’ is a fun and entertaining, fast-paced animated film - a fantastic knight’s tale that

The school year is over and finally it’s time for the holidays! Little Nicholas goes to the beach with his parents and his grandmother, and here he makes a lot of new friends. There is Ben who’s staying at the holiday hotel, Freddy who eats everything, even raw fish, English George who talks funny, Paul who cries all the time and the annoying Christopher, who always wants to be right. And then there is also little Elizabeth, who follows him around all the time, making him nervous; because what if people think they are boyfriend and girlfriend? Along with the others, they get into a lot of trouble and it will be some time before they forget

Ulf always thought that he was an orphan, but one day a fortune-teller tells him that his mother is still alive. So the two friends embark on a journey to wolf country to find her, and arrive in the middle of the annual carnivore festival.

Together with a group of like-minded souls, they form a gang that plays tricks with the school’s strict administration. But then they stumble across a true mystery; the school’s founder Mr. Hope has apparently hidden a treasure somewhere within the school and to find it, one must be in possession of the playfulness that the school is

Aunt Hilda lives in a huge greenhouse away from the city noise and pollution. She is an avid environmentalist and loves all her plants. But as the cynical businesswoman Dolores gets her hands on a genetically modified plant that claims to be able to feed the entire world, while being an alternative energy source, Hilda smells something fishy. And it turns out she right too, in that the plant is highly unstable; so now Aunt Hilda has to prep her green fingers and save the earth. A both silly and charming cartoon that sparkles with imagination and that elegantly puts focus on the environment.

An extraordinary animated film about a boy who goes out to search for his father and discovers an amazing world that is ruled by machine-animals and other strange creatures.

Brazil is a film country that is worth keeping an eye on these days, especially when it comes to children’s films and here ‘The Boy and The World’ is a shining example.

But the environment at school is hard, and even though your name means ‘happiness’ it doesn’t necessarily mean that everything is nice and easy.

The Nightingale

Little Jack is born on a day so cold that his heart freezes.

The midwife Madeleine therefore replaces his heart with a cuckoo clock, which will function as long as Jack follows the rules, which include that he cannot fall in love. So when he meets the girl Acacia, his temporary mechanical heart is put to the test. Before he knows it, Jack is caught up in a large-scale adventure in the quest for his chosen one - but can he win her heart without losing his own? A wonderful love story set in the 1800s with amazing inventions, eccentric characters and lots of songs.

The Chinese grandfather Zhigen has to look after his grand daughter Renxing for a few days, and takes her back to his childhood village. On the journey he has a nightingale, which has been his only companion since his wife died. The trip will be a meeting between two generations: An old man who knows a lot about traditions and nature and a little girl who grew up in the big city with luxury and modern technology. In the beginning the two are an odd couple, as different as day and night, but ever so slowly they begin to get closer to each other and reach a mutual understanding.

Ziad is very close to the giraffes in the zoo, but during an air raid the male giraffe dies and the female stops eating. If they are to save the female giraffe, they have to find her a new mate - the only problem is that the only zoo that can help them, lies on the other side of the border in Israel.

‘Giraffada’ is a touching drama about the friendship between a boy and a giraffe, which also depicts the explosive conflict between Palestine and Israel as seen through the eyes of a child. Incredibly, the film is based on a true story from this unfortunately still highly topical

hot spot in the Middle East.

For 10-year-old Jack the family means everything. He loves his little brother Manuel and his mother Sanna, and she loves them. But the flighty Sanna had her boys at a young age and has a tendency to forget the children. So Jack has to take care of things at home, like the laundry, packed lunches and caring for little Manuel. He carries the burden with uplifted shoulders, but after an accident in the home, he ends up alone in an orphanage, where he suddenly has to learn to take care of himself. ‘Jack’ is a poignant tale about a boy who is forced to grow up early. A film reminiscent of the Dardenne brothers’ poignant realism, with a

hypnotic and grand performance by the young actor Ivo Pietzcker, in the all-important lead role.

I love short films, feature films, animation films, music videos and documentaries and I always speak my mind about the film I’m watching. It is actually difficult to explain what it is that makes a film experience extraordinary but I believe it is a mix of good storytelling, camera angles, music, lighting, and acting - Everything has to come together. It is my first time at BUSTER and I think it is going to be awesome.

Billie has a fateful secret; she is madly in love with Danny, who is Laura’s boyfriend and Danny feels the same. But when the peer Isaac moves in with Billie and her mother, who is a social worker, the dynamics between the young people change radically. This is a delicate and dangerously seductive film about the many different kinds of love that life offers in the time

“I just want to be like the others. Normal”. “It’s a little too late.” Those are some of the harsh lines between the teenager Marieme and her school principal at the beginning of the film. Marieme is involuntarily an outsider, fighting a turbulent existence at home, an unsympathetic school and the jungle law of suburban Paris. The nice girl is drawn in by a group of girls who are street-smart, spewing out toxic words and need no excuse to turn provocative and aggressive. In this new group friendship, Marieme finds the sense to togetherness, which she craves. The film, which screened at Cannes this year, takes an unusually sharp look at

young girls’ complex maturation process, and at the fear that can come to dominate the transition between childhood and adulthood.

He presents himself as a doctor and becomes especially interested in Lilith, who is small in stature, and her mother, who is pregnant with twins. Lilith’s father, however is suspicious - and for good reason. For the man turns out to be the notorious Nazi doctor Dr. Joseph Mengele! The fascinating history doesn’t play on the evil element, but is told from a child’s inquisitive

point of view. Lilith sees a hero who might help her where the rest of the world sees a monster. A varied and interesting, but also disturbing film.

Is obesity such a problem? And don’t you bear the blame yourself when you are overweight? BUSTER focuses on this issue and has invited Katrine Lund Skov, who works as manager for the Danish Nudging Network, to give an exciting presentation on brain behaviour, eating habits and how you can easily live a healthy life. Get out your running shoes - you need exercise after such a conscience nod. The world is growing and so are its inhabitants - literally.

This is the deeply fascinating story of Dutch girl Laura Dekker who sailed around the world alone, when she was only 14 years old. You have to have both nautical skills and confidence to face the challenges that Laura meets at sea, but this cool girl has it all in abundance.

She was born on a boat in New Zealand and has salt water running through her veins, so Laura is in her natural element. The loneliness of the high seas she also conquers with her head held high. In fact, she was so uncomfortable with all the festivities that met her on the last day of her trip that she just wanted to

Being included and integration is very much on the agenda these years, and are usually two sides of the same coin when it comes to the classroom. In this French documentary we get in close on a number of children aged 11 to 15 years. They come from such different places in the world as Senegal, Venezuela, Serbia, Ireland, Ukraine, China and Libya. They are all part of a unique ‘special class’ in Paris, focusing on language and taking into consideration the children’s different cultural backgrounds, in order to equip them for a future in French society - on equal terms with

everyone else. A sober and poignant insight into a problem, that in an increasingly globalized society can be said to affect schools throughout the entire world.

After the screening at the Cinematheque on September 25th there will be a presentation.

How has the Internet influenced a generation that has never experienced a world without constant access to social media, online games and porn? And what are the consequences of their virtual life on the web? There is plenty of food for informed thought in the documentary ‘InRealLife’, which examines the impact of technology on our lives. The Internet has also become the place where we uncritically share our private information, and where companies like Google, Yahoo and Apple store everything down to the smallest detail. There is no finger pointing or any doomsday prophecies to

find here, but rather a reminder of how valuable the ability to think critically and independently is - even if you always have Google at your fingertips.

The two gentlemen are the brains behind some of the most beloved Danish children’s classics such as “Hannibal & Jerry” and “Flyvende farmor” and this year marks their 30th anniversary. To celebrate this, BUSTER has decided to show four of their best children’s films and give the audience the opportunity to meet the directors. Furthermore, Wikke & Rasmussen have handpicked what they believe to be the three all-time best children’s movies and these will of course also be screened during the festival. As a final treat you can experience the two lovely performers give it their all at an extraordinary show for the whole family at Amager Bio!

Life in the nice housing estate Engleparken can be quite boring, so Hannibal hangs out a lot in front of the television. It worries his parents, who believe that boys should be out in the fresh air playing football, fishing and playing superheroes. They therefore give him the dog Jerry, which appears to be no ordinary dog.

Because Jerry can speak. But it’s not just Hannibal, who thinks it’s great to have a talking dog - so too does the cynical toy manufacturer Uncle Grandpa, who wants to get his hands on Jerry. So when the dog is kidnapped, Hannibal has to set out and save his friend. A different

and shamelessly entertaining movie filled with catchy songs and the familiar, quirky humour that Wikke & Rasmussen are known for.

When the former boxing champion Ford Fordson is found murdered, it becomes a matter for the two detectives Gyldenstjerne and Rosenkrantz. The dismal hotel Motello is the setting for the murder, and the killer it would appear, is to be found among Ford’s own family and staff. Systematically, the two officers work their way through the somewhat dysfunctional cast of characters and unravel the intricate web of intrigue, secrets and relationships. It will be a difficult case because among the many suspects, one is more mysterious than the next, and the killer always seems to be one step ahead.

Bamse with the blue woolly hat and blue pants has for decades been known to Danish readers of comics. For a while he even had his own magazine in Denmark. He is the world’s strongest bear, because he eats Grandma’s power honey. The friends include among others the white rabbit Little Jumpy and Clever the turtle. But even though Bamse and his friends are strong and good, they have to shape up when Grandma is kidnapped and they also have to fight an entire town of criminals in the guise of a cunning fox and a larger gang of bears. It is surprising that this famous cartoon character has not made it onto the big screen before, but now it’s finally here! A delightful adventure for the smallest audience.

Kasper’s mother is too busy to take a holiday in Spain, so he joins Sofie on a skiing trip instead, and as usual it’s a lot of fun when the two of them are together.

Because they are the best friends in the world and have promised each other that nothing will separate them. But Kasper is worried that his parents are getting divorced because they argue. Sophie thinks that he is behaving strangely, and when she meets Peter, who is an expert at skiing, Kasper becomes jealous - and then the two friends soft toys have to sort out the strings.

Tor Åge Bringsværd’s story began as a series of books, and has now become yet another film after last year’s BUSTER hit about the two best friends Kasper and Sofie.

A wonderful family film for the smallest audience, filled with humour and catchy songs.

Sofus the teddy understands all children’s languages.

He goes out into the world by boat, train, horse, plane and parachute to glide down to a place where there are children. In these episodes from the brand new Ramasjang series ‘Sofus’, we join the teddy visiting Swedish Hugo who has asthma, two twins in Honduras who take Sofus to the market, Norwegian Ingrid who wants to bake waffles and the birthday-boy Samrat in Nepal.

Sofus lands in Sweden, where Hugo lives. Hugo has asthma and has to go to the doctor. It’s not always fun to be examined, but Hugo does a great job and afterwards he himself gets to examine Sofus with the doctor’s equipment. At home Hugo plays with his good friend and Sofus makes “Sofus fun” with both of them.

The day ends with Friday treats, a bedtime story and a gift from Hugo to Sofus.

Sonny lands in Norway, where Ingrid lives. Ingrid has her best friend over for a visit. They want to bake waffles and sell them by the side of the road, but it’s hard to bake waffles when they both want to do everything themselves. Sofus makes “Sofus fun” and it helps the

baking along. They share all the money and Ingrid gives Sofus the beautiful moneybox as a farewell gift.

Sonny lands in Honduras, where the twins live. The house, where the girl and the boy live, is the same colour as the ground outside. The twins want to play with balls, but the girl loses all the time and gets upset.

Instead the twins take to Sofus to the market, where he makes “Sofus fun” with bananas, so they can’t help but laugh. The day ends with a prayer and a gift from the twins to Sofus.

Sonny lands in Nepal, where Samrat lives. It’s Samrat’s birthday and he has invited all his best friends. He waits and waits. Are they coming yet? He is looking after them and starts to get worried that they forgot about the party. Everyone comes and brings presents, and Sofus has a special surprise for Samrat and Sofus also gets a gift from Samrat before going to sleep.

The subject is Rasmus Klump in this animation workshop at the Storm P. Museum, where children can tell their own story using the famous characters; Rasmus, Pingo, Skæg and Pelle! Animation is the obvious method, when children have to engage in film production for the first time, because it is easy to use, and creativity is in focus.

Inspired by the museum’s unique Rasmus Klump exhibit, consisting of original drawings, and templates of the characters from this universe, even the youngest can work with this very simple and pedagogical stop-motion technique and thereby create their own little animation.

The project is supported by the Frederiksberg Municipality Culture and Leisure Committee.

BUSTER Celebrates The European Day of Languages

Girlhood

Join us with movie, debate, croissants and French talks, when BUSTER in collaboration with The French Institute invites you to the European Day of Languages. 13-yearold Antoine Doines lives in Paris with his frustrated mother and his stepfather. They do not spend much time on the boy, who has a hard time finding his place at school. When he steals his father’s typewriter in order to get money to run away from home, he gets caught and is instead sent to a home for juvenile delinquents.

The place is not much different from his previous life, so Antoine’s thoughts soon turn to running away again.

French director Francois Truffaut died 30 years ago,

“I just want to be like the others. Normal”. “It’s a little too late.” Those are some of the harsh lines between the teenager Marieme and her school principal at the beginning of the film. Marieme is involuntarily an outsider, fighting a turbulent existence at home, an unsympathetic school and the jungle law of suburban Paris. The nice girl is drawn in by a group of girls who are street-smart, spewing out toxic words and need no excuse to turn provocative and aggressive. In this new group friendship, Marieme finds the sense to togetherness, which she craves. The film, which screened at Cannes this year, takes an unusually sharp look at

Being included and integration is very much on the agenda these years, and are usually two sides of the same coin when it comes to the classroom. In this French documentary we get in close on a number of children aged 11 to 15 years. They come from such different places in the world as Senegal, Venezuela, Serbia, Ireland, Ukraine, China and Libya. They are all part of a unique ‘special class’ in Paris, focusing on language and taking into consideration the children’s different cultural backgrounds, in order to equip them for a future in French society - on equal terms with everyone else. A sober and poignant insight into a

problem, that in an increasingly globalized society can be said to affect schools throughout the entire world.

For a period of almost two years, we follow hospital clown Angus and the 6-year-old Tobias, who is suffering from an aggressive form of cancer. The many months of repeated hospitalizations and painful treatments are alleviated by Angus’ presence. With humour, play and intimacy Angus and Tobias take up the fight against cancer - they duel at Guitar Hero, as masked bandits they make the ward a dangerous place, they play Uno and order they favourite meals, including gravy - lots of

We will be presenting the short films package ‘Beat it, Cancer!’ in collaboration with The Children’s Cancer Foundation, where this serious illness is interpreted for the youngest audience.

We follow Paul in the hospital and his struggle to get well of his cancer. To begin with the boy is scared, but when the doctor explains to him that the cancer is like a dragon you must fight, the knight within Paul is awakened. The film tackles with flair, one of the more difficult subjects, so even the youngest children can understand.

One of a Kind: In the animated short film ‘One of a Kind’ a number of children with cancer talk about how the treatment is done in the radiotherapy department.

Or do they? Because it is okay to be sad, especially when you are ill with cancer. BUSTER, The Children’s Cancer Foundation and the research program ‘Respect’ invite to a talk about the problems that can occur when you yourself or a friend is affected by cancer. Akkie is a tough girl who loves to play football. Although her harsh classmate Joep thinks it is a sport for boys, Akkie doesn’t let it get her down. But when one day she is diagnosed with leukaemia, her life is suddenly turned upside down.

However Akkie doesn’t plan on just giving up and luckily her classmates do what they can to support her - even Joep, who is struggling with his own problems at home.

This heart warming little gem has been a fully deserved huge success in its native country the Netherlands, and is an incredibly delicate and uplifting film about a very difficult subject.

After the movie you can hear researchers from Rigshospitalet’s project ‘Respect’ talk about living with cancer, and how life at school, leisure and socializing must give way to the hospital and treatment. There will be ample opportunity to ask questions.

The film is presented in collaboration with The Children’s Cancer Foundation and will be handed out juice sponsored by Rynkeby. Arbejdernes Landsbank’s Foundation and Hempel Foundation sponsor the event.

CRIME

CRIME Do you ever stop to wonder why some people end up committing a crime? BUSTER has decided to take a closer look at the subject of crime and find out whether or not all people who commit crimes are, in some extend, wicked, what some of the reasons might be for committing a crime and what is actually characterized as a crime. Join us when we visit a real courtroom at Frederiksberg in the middle of Copenhagen, experience real graffiti-artists at work and take a stroll around the city with the Copenhagen Police Museum who will show you how people have used the streets to rebel against the law.

REBELLION on Nørrebro

All Rise...

Through the years, the people of Nørrebro have repeatedly made aware their dissatisfaction with those in power by taking to the streets. Join us on a rebellious tour of Nørrebro when BUSTER and The Police Museum invite you to the movies and a city walk. On March 1, 2006, the police cleared the Youth House on Jagtvej 69.

Subsequently, violent riots broke out in the streets of Copenhagen. With unique access, the film follows the young people fight during the last six months. Through the main character Mads, we get a unique insight into what made Jagtvej 69 something special for a large group of young people, and why it eventually could go so wrong. It is a film about youth, rebellion and radicalism. And about a city that may leave less and less room for the quirky and the misfits.

The walk takes students out in the local area and back in time, for here they get to hear about the Copenhagen

Many films end when the criminal is handcuffed then put in a police car with flashing blue lights, which then drives off out of the picture. But what actually happens after that? And are there any mitigating circumstances for the crime? Get some of the answers when BUSTER invites us into the Frederiksberg Courtroom. In ‘Cracks in the Concrete’ 15-year-old Mika dreams of becoming a rapper and earns his way by selling drugs for the district’s unpredictable drug gangster, who he gets more and more indebted to. When it all looks completely hopeless, he meets the adult Ertan, who has just come out of jail and who sees himself and his own mistakes in Mika. But can he manage to help him before it is too late? Information and clues about Ertans past comes in small pieces. At the same time, we see Mikas inevitable walk down the exact same path, which once sent Ertan behind bars. A strong, raw and relentless drama from Vienna’s dark side, in the same league as the nail-biting Danish film Northwest.

In the Sankt Hans Square area fighting was so severe that police felt compelled to pull their guns and shoot.

You cannot fail to notice the graffiti when it is crawling along the walls, into tunnels and up on top of factory buildings. There is mystery and adrenaline associated with this maligned art form, but who are the people behind it, and what drives them? The rebellious teenager Chérif is battling loneliness and frustration over his broken family. He is constantly on the edge of the law and is a last resort, sent to live with his uncle in Strasbourg.

Here his cousin and his graffiti-gang introduce him to a world of excitement and speed, but also unity and friendship. The boy is fascinated by the mysterious graffiti artist “Vandal” who no one has met and he tries his best to discover the true identity of his new idol. But when Chérif breaks the gang’s trust, he must prove his worth - with some serious consequences to follow. This French youth drama is an honest and gripping film about the conflicts you face as a teenager, while searching for acceptance and understanding.

After the film BUSTER has invited the talented graffiti artist PRWND to demonstrate the process behind a work and talk about how it is to paint graffiti.

SEXUALITY ON MY MIND

SEXUALITY ON MY MIND BUSTER never shies away from difficult or embarrassing subjects, and this year the focus will be on the many aspects of sexuality. Meet 15-year-old Sieger who finds himself suddenly in love with another boy or sink your teeth into a sensual vampire drama that is sure to make your cheeks flush and your toes curl, when BUSTER in collaboration with MIX Skolefilm sparks a debate about the important topic of sexuality.

Sex! Sex! Sex! - Film and Discussion Tags: #Educational material, #Sexuality, #Coming-of-age. Subjects: Danish, Sex education.

Sex, breasts, identity, boundaries and love of the same sex - BUSTER focuses on the many different aspects of sexuality. Meet author Sarah Engell, who is currently being published with the book ‘21 måder at dø på’. This short film package offers both vampires, werewolves, endocrine disruption and religion, and all the films have in common, that they circle around the subject of young people’s navigation of this crazy and exciting, but also tabooed subject. Before the films there will be a visit by author Sarah Engell. She will read aloud from her new book and talk about the many taboos young people encounter every day.

The film is presented in collaboration with Carlsen Publishing.

The Prayer: The young Catholic Claudia openly shares her fantasies with the Virgin Mary about the somewhat older, delicious upstairs neighbour Jens, who is a cook and who she has a mega crush on. Sex fixated and bursting with teenage hormones Claudia can only think about losing her virginity - and preferably to Jens. But how should she go about it?

Tits: Sam is 13 years and the epitome of being hormonally challenged: he has breasts! Although he does everything he can to hide it, he can’t avoid being blackmailed by one of the school bullies. The embarrassing topic is tackled with a sense of humour in this glorious original short film.

Growing Pains: The boy Fabian lives with his controlling mother, who is a veterinarian. When the girl Felicia moves in next-door, Fabian’s hormones really start racing. But what do you do when you cannot control your animal instincts?

Yolo: The trio Kimmi, Sally and Nancy are inseparable friends, partying away at their empty school at night.

But Kimmi is secretly in love with Nancy and to make things even worse, she is a vampire! A stylish and elegant film that oozes exquisiteness!

Boys - Film and Discussion

Tags: #Educational material, #Sexuality, #Homosexuality. Subjects: Danish, Social studies.

What lies behind being gay and why can it be so hard to say it out loud? Join us when BUSTER invites you to an open and honest talk with Normstormerne who will articulate taboos and make the audience more aware of what it means to be young, have raging hormones and not feel at ease with one’s own sexuality. In ‘Boys’ we meet 15-year-old Sieger, who is a promising athlete who has just been selected to represent the school’s relay race team. Here he meets his peer Marc, and they become good friends - in fact such good friends that Sieger must admit to himself that there is more than just friendship between them. Unlike Marc who has come to terms with his sexuality, Sieger tries at first to escape from his feelings by pushing Marc away and finding himself a nice girl. But true love is hard to ignore, and it becomes harder and harder for Sieger to continue lying to himself. ‘Boys’ is a different kind of coming-of-age story told with down-toned humour and empathy. A brave film about daring to live life - even if you do not know if the water is too deep.

After the film, a volunteer from Normstormerne will talk to the pupils about the film and its themes.

Normstormerne is a free offer to all 7th to 10th graders in Aarhus and Copenhagen, where the aim is to reduce bullying and not feeling comfortable with yourself when it comes to sex and sexuality.

Crack, Back & Sack - Film and Discussion Galore Tags: #Educational material, #Sexuality, #Drama. Subjects: Danish, Social studies, Sex education.

We’re turning up the heat and cheeks will get red when Emil Thorup, known from programmes like Sexministeriet and Xtra Factor, swings by the auditorium to talk about sex on the brains, personal scoring tricks and how to avoid breaching your partner’s sexual boundaries. Sex, sex and more sex. That’s all Christian’s new roommates Karl and Leo think about. Christian has just moved to Oslo to complete his studies and he has never had much luck with the ladies, so his new friends decide to teach him the art of scoring. Especially Karl has a talent for getting women into bed, and he is determined to reach 123 conquests before the New Year; one woman more than Casanova! Christian quickly becomes this self-proclaimed sex god’s new disciple. But can you just kind of leave your heart at home, when going out on the prowl? A very explicit and sometimes quite harsh coming-of-age comedy about sex and about the serious consequences it may have to be one hell of a chick magnet!

16-year-old Anne goes without knowing that this summer will change everything. She lives in a small village in the Netherlands and is part of a gang that hangs out together, swims and parties. Anne’s a bit of an outsider. She does not say much and is thus named Miss Silent. She mostly plays audience to her big brother Peer and his friend’s goings on. But one day the little bit older Lena rides into town on her motorcycle, wearing a cool and tight leather outfit. It sets in motion a surprising development, where Anne and her friends struggle with an urge both to fit in and find a foothold in their own lives. And it is not easy, because the village holds several grim secrets. A compelling drama about identity, sexuality and belonging.

A forest fire is dangerously close to breaking out into the bone-dry Australian landscape, where the inseparable best friends Billie and Laura are frolicking during their holidays. But there are also other sparks that ignite conflicts, in a summer that will change everything.

Billie has a fateful secret; she is madly in love with Danny, who is Laura’s boyfriend and Danny feels the same. But when the peer Isaac moves in with Billie and her mother, who is a social worker, the dynamics between the young people change radically. This is a delicate and dangerously seductive film about the many different kinds of love that life offers in the time between childhood and adulthood.

AppLab - Design, Learning and Mobile Apps

SmĂĽP - a Shortcut to Work with Digital Media in all School Subjects

There are thousands of apps for all the different subjects at school. But how do you teach your pupils to design their own apps, and how can they be used as an appropriate tool for learning in the classroom?

Today, the use of apps has become an important tool in our daily communication, and it is easy to develop apps that are a relevant learning tool in the classroom.

In this workshop you will in a fun and creative way and through a hands-on approach, be introduced to the technology behind an application, while getting inspiration for developing, designing and programming

Film Production as a Supportive Teaching Method

Make Stop Motion Films in the Classroom

Support teaching will be introduced into the curriculum with the new school reform, and a film production is ideal as an interdisciplinary project where teachers and educators can complement each other and support the students where they are strongest. Workshop for learning teams: two or more persons enrol per school.

Film school is an activity that calls for many disciplines and skills. Ideas are needed for the story, aesthetic considerations concerning what will work, set design, technical skill in relation to equipment and editing, and not least it requires a team effort. In the workshop two to four colleagues have to work together in order to

Stop Motion is a simple animation method that can be used to make small cinematic tales of almost all topics and all sorts of materials. It is therefore natural to use stop motion when introducing film to your pupils for the first time. Course for teachers, educators and librarians. During the course you will be taught by a professional animator, and you will get to try out some of the most basic and effective techniques. You will try out different materials and we go through exercises that could be transferred directly to a learning process in the classroom for children aged 5-12 years. The film production will take place on computers as well as iPads,

WORKSHOPS FOR SCHOOLS

BUSTER GIVES IT A GO: WORKSHOPS FOR SCHOOLS At BUSTER’s media academy you and your class can give the production of digital media a go. In these intensive workshops, the pupils get the opportunity to create their very own media productions, be it a futuristic animated scenery at Brede Industri Museum or a self portrait. In ‘Selfie - With an Ironic Twist’ we work with body, staging and animation and in ‘My Personal Puzzle’ produce the studends their own personsl documentaries. Educational material has been developed for a number of these workshops, and it is expected that the classes come to the workshops prepared.

Animation in a Time Capsule

Make an App With AppLab

All kinds of stories, universes and materials can be animated when we unleash our creativity and send off the time capsule; because here ‘time’ is the theme!

Animation is easy to use, and here we focus on creativity.

We will work with the simple and pedagogical stopmotion technique, where students have to animate their own stories and characters. The theme is ‘time’, and the time capsule can both travel back in time to the dinosaurs, medieval Vikings or even the Battle of Hastings, and to the future to a science-fiction scenario or how about a journey light years into space?

Without a smartphone you can design and produce an app in a fun and creative way in this workshop, where students are making an app that uses Google map, combined with their favourite place. The workshop tests the students’ hand at the process from idea generation to design and programming, based on their visual expression. It is easy to develop apps as a relevant learning tool where students both learn to reflect and cooperate on issues such as the mobile phone’s features, media behaviour, digital imaging and the role of applications in their daily lives.

Tags: #Time travel, #Alternative classroom, #Animation. Subjects: Arts and crafts, Danish, History.

There is the opportunity to work with a time period that you are already working with in class, or you can choose one of the themes that will be sent together with the preparation material.

In 2050, robots will be a natural part of society. There will be ‘build a robot’ laboratories where you can tailor make your very own robot. But what happens when the system goes haywire? This scenario is played out in Brede Work’s installation ‘The Machine’, where the pupils themselves play the main characters and even design the robots that come to life on the assembly line.

We will work with the animation technique ‘pixilation’, which animates both people and things. The special feature of this technique is that you can do tricks and manipulation, which you can’t make with the ordinary real movie. In the creative process the pupil’s ability

How can a melon be used to create the sound of a fall? Why do you use music in the movies? And what is the real sound that a frog makes? A production soundtrack is often overlooked, but nonetheless plays a very important role in the narrative and universe of films, computer games and television programmes.

Therefore, in this workshop we focus on the film’s different sounds including music, sound and effects, in order to raise the students’ awareness and analytical skills in relation to this often overlooked part of cinematic expression. Frederiksberg Filmværksted opens its doors to this workshop, where there will be an educational

OFFICIAL PROGRAMME: CHILDREN

Computer Games Development

Motion Comic - The Living Cartoon

Games on the mobile, iPad or computer - at school or in your spare time! There are games everywhere and it is both entertaining and challenging to develop games, because you strengthen your creative, logical and analytical skills. The workshop starts with a brief introduction to the technique and the free programme used to build a computer game. Then pupils have to brainstorm ideas and hash out a plot for the game, only to plunge into the actual game production itself.

Here you have the opportunity to work with a genre or theme, which can be an extension of another theme

Images, sounds and words are the key elements when students have to create their own ‘motion comic’, which is a film genre that mixes the comic with the animation movie. Frederiksberg Filmværksted opens its doors to this workshop where students will work with a good story. We will be playing and experimenting with narrative sequence, image composition and depth perspective, music, sound effects and timing. The basic material is a manga universe, which makes it possible to work with genres such as adventure or horror. The workshop introduces cinematic instruments used in film,

‘Selfie’ is our time’s great buzzword in social media, and therefore we focus on ourselves and each other in this workshop where body, movement, animation and iPads are all coming together! In this pixilation- and performance workshop, we focus on how we produce and stage ourselves and others, when we take selfies with our phone. In a safe environment we play and experimenting with our bodies and personal expression while we animate each other on iPads. The workshop combines the two directors, respectively, performance and stop-motion animation, and together we challenge

our view of ourselves and our friendships in the class.

television and advertising, and students acquire tools that they can then used to create their own IT-based productions, or as analytical tools.

My Personal Puzzle

- Documentary From The Young People’s Own Lives Tags: #Identity, #Dokumentar, #Media production. Subjects: Arts and crafts, Danish, Film studies.

What is the reality of the digital age? TV reports, documentary portraits and reality series all give their own versions. With the students’ own videos and photos captured on the mobile, they create their own personal self-portrait. In the workshop, students will be working on their material in order to build up a personal picture collage using associative cutting techniques as well as music and text/ narration. We examine how the images work, experiment with different expressions

and combine images from moods, colours and shapes.

The aim is to teach students how to play with the film medium, cutting techniques and how to create a visual personal puzzle.

- This is How The Cinematographer Works!

On a production, the photographer works on what should be seen in the picture, how the camera should be moved and how light and colours are able to create the mood in the film. In this workshop, students get insight into the photographer’s work methods, theory about the camera work and an introduction to the technical and aesthetic possibilities and effects. In the workshop, students will also get hands-on experience with the camera, as they themselves have to work with

the camera, lighting, sound, image cropping, etc. and in 5-7 person groups, they have to film short scenes where there will be ‘cut in camera’.

The teacher is a trained professional cinematographer.

The workshop is offered in collaboration with Station Next.

- An Introduction to Scriptwriting A good idea or a good story is the heart of any film, but the idea or story has to be developed before it becomes a script, which is the focal point of the entire production.

Students have to develop their ideas through various activities, and start to write their own scripts in this workshop, which provides an insight into the various stages of manuscript development. Using theories, manuscripts and movie clips from professional films and student films, students receive tools and inspiration to

tell and structure their own stories, and they become aware of cinematic expression and applications.

The teacher is a trained professional screenwriter. The workshop is offered in collaboration with Station Next.

The old anatomical theatre at Medical Museion, where the up and coming surgeons once learned all about anatomy and dissection, is the setting for a very special film screening on Nazi doctor Josef Mengele and his grisly experiments. Who says you can always recognize evil, especially when it’s smiling right at you? We are in Argentina just after World War II. Here we encounter 12-year-old Lilith and her family who meet a lone German man on the way to their hotel. He presents himself as a doctor and becomes especially interested in Lilith, who is small in stature, and her mother, who is pregnant with twins. Lilith’s father, however is suspicious - and for good reason. For the man turns out to be the notorious Nazi doctor Dr. Joseph Mengele! The fascinating history doesn’t play on the evil element, but is told from a child’s inquisitive point of view. Lilith sees a hero who might help her where the rest of the world sees a monster. A varied and interesting, but also disturbing film.

After the film there will be a guided tour of the Medical Museion’s exciting exhibitions. The exhibits focus on health and disease, past and present. As an extension of the film, the tour will be based on the physician’s role over time and also show how medical research is done today.

On the way he meets both animals and strange creatures from the landfill and the forest, and it is far from all of them that are good. This Czech puppet animation is a magical mix of Toy Story and Labyrinth, but first and foremost it is its own. A cute and imaginative film about how even an old and worn stuffed toy, can also be a hero - for the bond between children and their favourite toys is not that easy to just break!

After the competition we will be showing ‘Scrapwood War’, an exciting movie about friendship and intrigue. Ziggy and Bas are best friends, and look forward to the annual competition of who can build the tallest play tower.

But Bas feels inferior to Ziggy, who plays the lead role in the school play along with Elena, who Bas is in love with. Filled with jealousy Bas allies himself with the school bullies, while Ziggy has to build his tower with his younger brother. As the spat slowly starts turning into a regular and dangerous war, Bas however starts getting cold feet; because does he really want to risk his friendship? This is a film about the value of friendship and talking about problems instead of just turning your back to them. If you want to build the tallest tower in town, it won’t work using your strength on just tearing down other people’s tower.

Before the movie we’ll host a hectic building competition, where tip-top concentration is needed when the starting pistol sounds and the highest tower has to be built!

Is obesity such a problem? And don’t you bear the blame yourself when you are overweight? BUSTER focuses on this issue and has invited Katrine Lund Skov, who works as manager for the Danish Nudging Network, to give an exciting presentation on brain behaviour, eating habits and how you can easily live a healthy life. Get out your running shoes - you need exercise after such a conscience nod. The world is growing and so are its inhabitants - literally. In the U.S., they even talk about an obesity epidemic that not only affects adults, but also very much children. #Fed Up# focuses on some of the problems and misunderstandings that for many years have been linked to obesity and asks the critical question: What if we have been wrong all these years?

Friend or Foe? - The War in Afghanistan Tags: #War, #Politics, #Excitement. Subjects: Danish, History, Social studies.

Get closer to the war in Afghanistan and listen to how it is experienced with Danish eyes, when Buster shows the movie ‘Brothers in Arms’ at the National Museum with presentations by the film’s director. There is also an opportunity to explore The Royal Danish Arsenal Museum exhibition ‘Den fjerne krig’. In ‘Brothers in Arms’ Eagle is platoon leader in Afghanistan and cooperates with the local police captain Fareed. Across the cultural divide their men fight side by side in the war-torn region.

But when one of the Afghan policemen suddenly turns his weapon against the Danes and presses the trigger, cooperation between the two leaders is put to the test.

In a country where nothing is black and white and where corruption permeates everything, it’s hard to tell friend from foe, especially when you do not speak the same language and trust can end up meaning the difference

BUSTER’S GREEN WORLD

BUSTER’S GREEN WORLD 2014 marked the year for when Copenhagen was honored with the prestigious title of being the greenest capital of Europe. To celebrate this BUSTER has arranged a series of films and events that puts the theme of a greener capital on the agenda. So come and get your nails dirty in the new urban garden at the Museum of Copenhagen, experience the futuristic and sustainable building Dome of Visions or try your hand at urban planning at The Danish Architecture Centre. The future of our green capital is in your hands!

City Planner For a Day

Nature City - Film and Green Fingers

What does the future city look like, and what should it do? This can be addressed in the course ‘Sustainable Cities’. Try your hand as a city planner when the Danish Architecture Centre invites you inside. For more than 40 years architect and urban planner Jan Gehl, has studied how people interact with each other and how they use the urban space. This has led to several international projects, in which he has made use of his observations and created more harmonious and functional solutions that put people in the centre and moves the growing traffic away from the urban space. The film takes us to New York, Melbourne, Dhaka and even Copenhagen, and common to them all, is that they contain Jan Gehl’s visions of a more pedestrian-friendly urban space. A fantastic and informative documentary about the world’s growing “Mega cities”, as well as a fascinating insight into Gehl’s projects around the world.

BUSTER and Copenhagen Museum join forces to create a day city nature that is guaranteed to lay roots and get good ideas going. Aunt Hilda lives in a huge greenhouse away from the city noise and pollution. She is an avid environmentalist and loves all her plants. But as the cynical businesswoman Dolores gets her hands on a genetically modified plant that claims to be able to feed the entire world, while being an alternative energy source, Hilda smells something fishy. And it turns out she right too, in that the plant is highly unstable; so now Aunt Hilda has to prep her green fingers and save the earth. A both silly and charming cartoon that sparkles with imagination and that elegantly puts focus on the environment.

As part of BUSTER’s focus on the green life in the city, Danish Architecture Centre offers the whole city’s classes the opportunity to try out as city planners for a day.

BUSTER will show the exciting documentary ‘The Human Scale’ about Jan Gehl, who has become world famous for his ideas about how to create ‘life between buildings’ and plan cities that are good to live in.

After the movie, the classes will work in the center’s Architecture Laboratory, where throughout the course ‘Sustainable Cities’ will have a role in a number of issues that are central to the future of sustainable cities. The game has five themes - and this event will focus on the theme “Green city”.

The film is presented in collaboration with Sharing Copenhagen.

THE HUMAN SCALE Denmark 2012, 78 min.

Tags: #Environment, #Animation, #Nature. Subjects: Danish, Home economics, Social studies.

After the film the event continues at the Museum of Copenhagen. In the museum’s city garden, among the flowers, herbs and beanstalks, we examine what the city’s nature actually is and what it can be. We discuss what a good town is, and talk about how we can help to create a green, blooming city. In the exhibition ‘Drømmen om en By’ we’ll try to plan and build the green dream city, just like the one Shane Brox is starting to build.

With LEGO bricks we’ll build trees and green areas, skate parks and promenades, houses with grass on the roof,

and whatever else we can come up with.

The film is presented in collaboration with Sharing Copenhagen.

Take a stroll down memory lane when we revisit some of the dear old children’s classics such as ‘Hannibal & Jerry’ by Wikke & Rasmussen, step inside the magnificent sustainable Dome of Visions where the famous chef and food columnist, Louisa Lorang, will host a tasty juce-workshop or put on your dancing shoes and join us for an afternoon of jazzy vibes and concerts at Jazzhouse in central Copenhagen.

Fantasy We Like - Film and Fun at ARKEN

Jazzing It Up With BUSTER

In collaboration with ARKEN, BUSTER organizes a day for children and playful parents, where imagination is on the agenda. Discover a cavalcade of funny short films and jump around in the play installation ‘the model’ at ARKEN. Meet among others Mille Moskus who is tired of just eating grass, the two crazy Stone Age men from Originalos that constantly get into trouble, and see or re-watch the two brothers Thomas and Tim dreaming themselves into another world and going on an adventure when BUSTER puts together a special short film package.

After the movie, the ARKEN play installation The Model, based on Palle Nielsen’s famous work from 1968, will be open for fun and games. Climb up on the catwalk of the tower, or dive into the colourful foam pillow-sea.

Play pirate, diver, soldier or princess in the castle. Only your imagination sets the limits!

The sound of drums and trumpets! It’ll be hard to sit still when Buster and Jazzhouse join forces to create a blast of a jazztastic event that includes both film and concert. Dance mosquito Dagmar is passionate about her dancing and has the hots for Egon. But Egon is hot for a sprint and wants to see the world. Love will have to wait, he thinks. When the evil red ant queen Dominella and her soldiers kill the black ant queen and takes over her anthill, our heroes get more or less voluntarily involved in an exciting drama that puts their friendship to the test and requires them to use their talents to the utmost. Jannik Hastrup and Flemming Quist Møller’s second film about the cheeky cycle mosquito is a real pleasure for both young and old and is filled with jazzy music. A film bursting with humour, anarchy and the joy of storytelling and is also filled with a swarm of colourful insect characters.

The subject is Rasmus Klump in this animation workshop at the Storm P. Museum, where children can tell their own story using the famous characters; Rasmus, Pingo, Skæg and Pelle! Animation is the obvious method, when children have to engage in film production for the first time, because it is easy to use, and creativity is in focus.

Inspired by the museum’s unique Rasmus Klump exhibit, consisting of original drawings, and templates of the characters from this universe, even the youngest can work with this very simple and pedagogical stop-motion

technique and thereby create their own little animation.

The project is supported by the Frederiksberg Municipality Culture and Leisure Committee.
