The thing about Scandinavian short films is that they are so unbearably pretentious. Being Danish myself, I feel I can say this without stepping on any toes that aren't also my own. 'NU' (2003) is the perfect example, what with being shot in B&W for no good reason and lasting 27 minutes without dialogue. Come on.

On the other hand, the complete lack of a coherent storyline or believable character motivation can sometimes have its benefits. Such as when this


inexplicably turns into this


which in turn leads, somewhat more naturally, to this


and then - now making complete causal sense - to this


I do love me some wanton man-on-man snogging. If it doesn't make sense, you must acquit.
