It was an inspiring conversation about filmmaking, artistic vision and the creative process behind the work. Thank you, Casper, for your honesty, generosity and for giving our audience a unique insight into your journey as a filmmaker.

And thank you to everyone who came, asked thoughtful questions and helped make the conversation so engaging. These moments of dialogue between filmmakers and audiences are at the heart of what Copenhagen Headliner Film Festival is all about.
