BEN HAMILTON
I saw Edward Albee’s The Zoo Story (see G2 for details) when I was 16 and was blown away. It was intriguing and gripping – not bad for a play written in the 1950s. It sure beat most of the contemporary cinema of its time, although the same could be said about the work of Arthur Miller and Tennessee Williams. I had been meaning to recommend it to Ian Burns as the perfect play to do. Two-player vehicles make good sense financially, and you limit the possibility of casting somebody in a lesser role who’s no good. So when he told me he was doing it, I wasn’t surprised and for a second even thought it was my idea. Isn’t it always annoying when that happens, with an idea, or even just in general conversation – I guess how much it affects you depends on the size of your ego. Albee’s still alive, and at 83 years of age is only seven short of overhauling Miller, who lived until he was 90. Not sure whether there’s a connection, but it must be satisfying to write an endearing piece of thea-
tre, knowing the amount of joy it will give to not only audiences, but also drama groups. However, it’s surprising to learn the Arts Council withheld funding. “I received a reply from the Arts Council who could give us 2,000 kroner a day to help cover the cost of renting Krudttønden,” explained Burns. “But they decided that 500 kroner was enough because the play had no relevance, was too old and not on the cutting edge.” It sounds like they used one of those ‘literary worth’ graphs that Robin Williams’ character lampoons in Dead Poets Society. It really does beggar belief given the amount of unauthentic rubbish that passes for theatre in this country. Elsewhere this week, we’ve got another edition of the culturallyrich Art, Food and Wine (see G9) to look forward to; MIX, the gay and lesbian (and don’t forget the transsexuals – they are critically key this year) film festival (see G18); the start of the Wundergrund Festival (see G8); and a review of Reinwald’s Restaurant (see G13), where over the next two to three weeks you can, if you’re brave enough, eat bear. Yes, Winnie, Rupert, Yogie and Boo Boo – they’re all on the menu, and apparently they taste greaaaat. A bear barbecue – sounds like a zoo story that’s very cutting edge indeed.

It was probably a simple exchange. Perhaps someone held the door open for you and you thanked them, or you had to ask for directions. Now think about the last time that you really talked to someone you didn’t know. Where you talked about something more interesting than the weather. When there was no underlying purpose to the conversation apart from the desire to connect and share our mutual experiences. In the modern age, we are constantly sharing ourselves with other people. Facebook, Twitter, blogs and other networks enable us to communicate constantly with one another, without restriction. However in this maze of inane information sharing and self-publication, have we lost the ability to meaningfully communicate in person? Have we no desire to meet those who move outside the tightly-knit social circles in which we operate? Has the spontaneity of conversations with strangers been lost in the haze of our relentless technological progress? With their latest production, THAT Theatre Company aims to provoke and stimulate discussion around these questions and ideas. They are staging The Zoo Story by Edward Albee. Written in 1958, the one-act play has a simple premise. Peter, a middle-class publishing executive and family man sits on a bench in Central Park. Jerry, a lonely and eccentric younger man, strikes up conversation with him, provoking the reluctant Peter to think about the comfortable bubble that he lives in. The play is a dark comedy and is furiously paced in the lead-up to its epic conclusion. Despite being a few years past its 50th anniversary, The Zoo Story remains as pertinent now as it ever was. Ian Burns, the artistic director of THAT Theatre Company, provides a simple explanation. “The human condition hasn’t changed much over the past 50 years since the play was written. Facets of greed, love, passion and ambition are the same.” Peter’s character, a man who

The set design by Karin Betz and lighting design by Jesper Kongshaug capture the dark atmosphere of Tosca. Each of the three acts features colour-co-ordinated lighting, with deep reds or dark blues bathing the stage to match the emotional musical cues of the orchestra and opera singers. BF
A chance meeting between two men - Ian Burns and Borgen’s Adam Brix - leads to high tension
would prefer to ignore the problems of the outside world in favour of his domesticated life, resonates deeply with the current dissent seen through worldwide protests. People are starting to see that Peter’s mindset - one of individualism over community - forms the backbone of a broken social system. A growing lack of communication in society means that those on the fringes are increasingly ignored and marginalised. Burns suggests that the dangers of this ignorance came to the fore with the recent riots around the UK. He sees the essence of the play and its relation to the human condition in its animalistic title. “Beneath the surface of the most liberal person lies the animal that is prepared to defend its territory - the play could be called ‘The Human Zoo Story’,” he says. At its heart, The Zoo Story is our story, as beneath all our cultural sophistications and technology, we remain animals. We are wary of the unknown and often unwilling to give up our territory by sharing meaningful conversation with a stranger. This production was partly inspired by the work of British sociologist Theodore Zeldin. His Muse Foundation organises various events designed to get people talking and connecting. ‘The Feast of Strangers’ is one such event where diverse groups of people are invited to a public place. They are then

But while for reasons not unrelated to its risqué nature and views on fidelity, many of its custodians have been compelled to bowdlerise it, this is about as delightful as opera buffa gets. KRG

randomly paired up with another participant and given a menu of conversation topics. What happens next is up to them. A similar project was tested by DSB in Copenhagen last spring. A ‘conversation compartment’ was set up on the B+ line with a similar format, albeit this time the passengers were not prepared. The experiment was not well received, indicating the reluctance of Copenhageners to communicate with strangers in such a setting. This spurred THAT Theatre Company to plan a post-show debate at The Zoo Story premiere on October 26. The debate will include a panel of academics and journalists discussing this notion of ‘communication with a stranger’ and the reluctance of many to do so in this day and age. In light of its current societal significance, it is surprising that the Arts Council has slashed funding to this production, citing the play’s age and “irrelevance”. “Why do Shakespeare then?” Burns asks. In any case, THAT Theatre Company’s production of The Zoo Story is certain to raise provocative questions about the nature of our society and its continual evolution. After seeing the show you might never see your daily metro ride in the same way again.

Consisting of four solo pieces curated by Marylise Tanvet, the theme of 4’s (i) 1 is one of feminine strength, with all four pieces representing a diverse range of not only dance, but female experience. The international backgrounds of the dancers are heavily stressed in the performances, where the overall goal is to combine four different life experiences and have them all in one room at the same time in Denmark. The dancers and choreographers come from four different cultural backgrounds, each one split again through experience: South Africa/Italy, the Netherlands/Africa, Israel/Denmark and French-Caribbean. These experiences are then weaved together by Tanvet, who will serve as a guide while the audience observes a cultural exchange in the form of dance. With all four dances exploring

the idea of identity, the intention of the programme is to present four differing perspectives that combine to form into a unifying purpose and message. The programme begins with Tanvet, who represents the France/Denmark perspective on the power of women. Her piece, entitled Good Evil, lasts 15 minutes with music from Joachim Holbek. The piece is about the revolt of a generous but naïve woman against her surroundings and the condemnation that follows. The dance is split into three parts with each one exploring the topics of fear, confrontation and reflection. Ultimately, Tanvet’s piece is about the test of personal strength in the face of adversity. Tiziana Fracchiolla, an Italian born in South Africa, follows Tanvet with Two Feet Up and Down Ahead, a 17-minute solo with music from Natalino Otto originally composed by Jørgen Teller. Fracchiolla, who worked as assistant choreographer for Show Boat at The Royal Albert Hall in London, has also created two works for the Copenhagen International Summer Ballet. Following Fracchiolloa is Esther Wrobel from Israel and Denmark, whose five-minute solo is a combination of animation, music and vertical dance entitled The Room, which explores different perceptions of
reality and surrealism. “It is a question related to what is ‘real’ and how many different ‘reals’ can we experience in one small space,” Wrobel writes on her website, estherwrobel.weebly. com. “It opened a deep curiosity regarding surrealism and is a joyful experience that isn’t over.” Capping off the performance is Wubkje Kuindersma from the Netherlands. Her 15minute solo, Familiar Stranger, is accompanied by music from Bach, Nina Simon and Alva Noto. Kuindersma has been teaching modern dance and ballet at Dansenshus Kopenhagen since April of 2010. Accompanying the dancers is a video installation as well as a conceptual set-up on stage to help each dancer to transmit their specific message. Between each piece, Tanvet will create transitions during the four sound checks that are intended to connect each dance to each other via the sounds of a clock, rain, voices or steps. The solo dances of all four empowered women, with assistance from Tanvet’s inter-piece transitions, are all set to take place on different spaces of the stage with all of them meeting at one point in space, not unlike the meaning behind 4’s (i) 1.

Not just two nerds and their Macbooks Digitalism
Store Vega; Saturday, 20:00; 225 kr www.vega.dk www.thedigitalism.com
I
T’S BEEN a long wait for Digitalism’s highly anticipated second album, but in June of this year the electronic duo hailing from Hamburg came out with their sophomore release entitled I Love You Dude, and it is another sterling effort from the pair. It carries on from where their debut album left off, albeit with a slightly more refined sound, showing the band’s expertise not only as musicians but also as producers. Their distinctive indie-rock tinged sound still permeates the entire record but there is no track on the album that lets the listener forget that Digitalism’s creativity centres around electro and house music. This grounding in electronic music does not, however, prevent them from displaying their wellhoned pop music sensibilities, most notably on the tracks ‘2 Hearts’ and ‘Forrest Gump’, the latter of which was co-written with The Strokes front man Julian Casablancas – further proof that the pair are capable of holding their own with some of the biggest names in rock music. Jens Moelle and Ismail Tufekci met in a record store in Hamburg in 2004 and quickly became friends and not long after began to play regular DJ shows together. A few sessions in the studio soon turned into an EP released in 2005 on French label Kitsune. A string of low-profile releases followed before their debut album entitled Idealism came out in 2007, earning acclaim from many fans and critics alike, especially for the songs ‘Pogo’ and ‘Zdarlight’. Before long, they were being touted by some as the next Daft Punk – a huge compliment in many ways as Daft Punk are one of their biggest influences – but Digitalism have not struggled to carve out their own signature sound, both on their original recordings and with their remixes. Since the release of Idealism the pair have released many remixes of songs by the likes of Simian Mobile Disco, The Cure and Daft Punk, and perhaps their passion for the art of remixing goes some way to explaining the four-year gap between their first and second albums. As a live act Digitalism are much more interesting to watch than the vast majority of electronic artists and DJs around today. Moelle and Tufekci spend minimal time staring into a computer screen on stage, but instead make the majority of their sounds live, although these sounds are ultimately controlled via an Apple Mac that sits unobtrusively in the middle of their gear. They play a selection of analogue and digital keyboards, drum pads, and all the singing is done live by Moelle rather than relying on a selection of pre-recorded samples. The result is that no two shows by the band are ever the same as both musicians are experts at feeding off the energy of each other and the crowd, extending sections of songs and creating intricate electronic jam sessions live on stage, with thumping drum beats and distorted bass lines leading the charge towards a euphoric climax. The warm-up bands are two strangely-named American acts: oOoOO and ButterClock. Both artists play house music of a slightly more low-key and mellow variety than their German counterpart, with trip hop-influenced drum beats and some ambient vocal stylings. The headliners will undoubtedly be the stars of the show so put your dancing shoes on, as these German electro rockers will have the audience at Store Vega jumping up and down all night.

An eccentric, Amos is both one of the most influential and indeed beautiful artists from the other side of the pond, and earlier this year she released her 12th studio-album Night of Hunters.

Templet; 21:00; 120kr A hometown hero, Tramp is a singer-songwriter renowned for his work with glam-rock bands such as White Lion and Freak of Nature and has remained a cult figure in Denmark for the past three decades. He launched this solo project and debut album of the same name in 2009 and earlier this year a further record, Stand Your Ground. Tramp continues to feed the still burning desire for catchy glam rock.

The London-based quintet’s guitar riffs and reverberation and perfectly measured out distortion samples fill their noise with real sonic substance. There’s definitely something artistic about the group’s management of sound that comes across as mature, revelatory and provocative. A listen to their single, ‘Rubber’ - from their debut record by the same name - will give a fair insight into Yuck’s sonic profundity and a reason to pick yourself up from the weekend and take to the town this Monday.

KIDS CORNER
Choose healthy and seasonal food AUTUMN IS HERE, the kids are back in school or daycare, the family back to its normal daily routine. After the welcome but disruptive rhythm of summer, with perhaps too much unhealthy food, this is the perfect time to settle back into getting the family to cosy up together around some good healthy meals. As the days get chillier and darker, the menu gradually turns to soups, stews and casseroles. There is plenty of exciting, seasonal local produce to inspire the designated cook at home. From wild mushrooms, to pumpkins and beatroots of all kinds, there is plenty to fill your heart’s desires. A rich pumpkin soup accompanied by some rustic bread can certainly help the family wind down after a busy day for all, with the added advantage that the kids eat their vegetables without too much of a fuss! A good way to get inspired is to sign up for a delivery scheme, such as ‘aarstiderne’ (www.aarstiderne.com), Coop (webshop.coop.dk) or Økomanden (www.oekomanden.dk). These are online stores where you can order fresh produce: fruit, vegetables, meat and even fish. They are closely connected to the source of the food, and they sell and carry many organic products as well. This is a great way of getting seasonal produce. It is fun because it is a bit of a surprise every time - you never know exactly what will come in the box until you get it. It is also a good way of getting vegetables we never otherwise buy, either because we would not know what to do with them, or because the local supermarket does not carry them.

AS HUMANS we have five senses. We usually indulge them one at a time, be it by tasting a rich chocolate cake, viewing a visually stunning piece of art, smelling the wafts of freshly baked bread, feeling the drops of water in the shower or listening to a stunning composition. It’s not often though that we indulge all five senses at once. But this year’s Art, Food and Wine Festival is making that possible. Now in its fifth year, the festival aims to showcase the best up-and-coming Danish artists while exhibiting some of the best gourmet food and wine from here and abroad. “The aim is to combine the different senses in the hope it entertains and inspires people,” explains the artistic director of the event, Tina Kristensen. “If you want to celebrate the good things in life then this is the place to be.” According to Kristensen, the festival also hopes to prove that art doesn’t just come on a canvas as 50 wine and gourmet food retailers show off the creativity behind their delicacies. Pichathorn Punnin, the award-winning sushi maker from Sushi-Do, will get the creative juices flowing by displaying his edible sushi art on a naked woman’s body. According to ancient Japanese tradition, ‘body sushi’ or Nyotaimori is founded on the idea that sushi is as much about the taste as it is about the aesthetic experience. Summerbird’s chief chocolatier Thomas Parry will seek to reaffirm what Sanda J Dykes once said: “Forget love, I’d rather fall in chocolate.” Parry’s live chocolate cooking demonstrations will cover a wide
It’s also a great place to indulge in the art of good conversation
range of recipes. After diving into the chocolate sphere, jump over to the flødeboller-making course. Fine-tune your skills in flødeboller art by learning how to connect the crisp waffle bottom with the airy cream filling, before topping it off with flowing chocolate. After all the scrumptious food, treat yourself to a good drink to wash it down. If you prefer something a little stiffer, then never fear because Danish whisky brewery Braunstein is here. “This would be one of the top exhibitors to see as whisky breweries in Denmark are extremely rare,” enthuses Kristensen. Something else a little out of the ordinary is the ‘salsa rhythms and cold cocktails’ bar where you’ll be ripping up the floor with salsa while learning how to perfect the mojito. Much like an artist’s colour pallet that features a wide range of shades, the wines this year are an assortment of colours and flavors. Sample drops from Germany, Italy, Portugal and surprisingly Denmark.

Barnevognen Jytte Abildstrøms Theatre, Riddersalen, Allegade 7, Frederiksberg C; ends Sun, performances Fri 09:30 & 10:45, Sat-Sun 14:30 & 15:45; Tickets 35-125kr; www.riddersalen.dk A performance specifically designed for the very young, Barnevognen invites you to relive the pram you spent your first tentative years in. Proving there is more between the duvet and the mattress than we think, children will be able to recognise lots of aspects from their lives under the hood. EM Snedronning (Snow Queen) Theatre Zeppelin, Valdemarsgade 15, Cph V; ends Nov 29, performances Sun 13:00, Tue & Thu 09:30 & 12:00, Wed 10:00, Fri: 10:00; Tickets: 35165kr; www.zeppelin.dk Proving that HC Andersen’s stories are just as much of a hit today as they were long ago, The Snow Queen is an adventurous journey of evolution. Set at a hotel far away from civilisation, the story follows two friends Kay and Gerda who are suddenly delivered a magic mirror - with no idea where it came from. The mirror turns out to be a gateway to another world – the Snow Queen’s icy universe – where all your innermost dreams and wishes come true … but for a price. EM
Danish vineyard ‘Annisse’ in Helsinge will be popping the corks so you can form your own judgment on how well Danish wine measures up to world standards. Specialists are also at hand to answer all your wine questions you’ve been too afraid to ask such as: “Is Caberlot really a grape variety or did I just mishear that?” When the taste buds are fulfilled, move onwards to a little eye candy by taking in some art from one of the 120 exhibitors. “We try to create a platform for up-and-comers to exhibit their work so this is the place to discover new artists that aren’t fully appreciated yet,” reveals Kristensen. “It also means their art is affordable and you can go home with a great piece.” It’s also a very patriotic affair this year – all artists bar one are Danish. So treat yourself, enjoy the simple things in life, and indulge your senses. Art, Food and Wine awaits you!

VEGAN COOKIES are not an oxymoron. Really. Let me say up front, I am not nor ever will be a vegan. I couldn’t live without bacon. Or cheese. And a rich brownie without a glass of cold milk? Forget it. But I love baked goods, including vegan cookies, it turns out. It got me thinking about the reasons why some people choose veganism. While I wholeheartedly believe that the West consumes too much meat, I also believe that one can enjoy animal products in moderation without foregoing them entirely. US food writer Mark Bittman is a “vegetarian before 6pm” - he eats plant foods all day long, but for dinner often enjoys meat. In this way, he reduces his carbon footprint while at the same time improving

Restaurant Kiin Kiin Guldbergsgade 21, Copenhagen N; 3535 7535; fourcourse menu 450kr, sevencourse 775kr (with wine menu 1450kr); www.kiin.dk There are only two Thai restaurants in the whole world that have been awarded a Michelin star. One of them is in London, the other one is Kiin Kiin, which you will find in the heart of Nørrebro. And it is well deserved. Kiin Kiin isn’t just a restaurant, it’s an experience, a place where every little detail is thought through. PDR 1. th. Herluf Gade 9, 1052 Cph K; 3393 5770, 1th@1th.dk; www.1th.dk; 1,250kr per person 1th. is a gourmet restaurant with a twist. Tucked away behind a hard to-find-door on the first floor to the right of a typical Copenhagen apartment, the restaurant is based around the concept of the dinner party with guests stepping into what appears to be a private apartment and then being utterly spoilt by their hosts. The monthly set menu costs 1,250kr and has a whopping ten courses and you can tell them in advance of any food quirks you might have and they will personalise the menu for you. Terrific food, friendly and attentive service and a unique setting. CS A Porta Eta 1792 17 Kongens Nytorv, 1050 Cph K; open Mon-Sat, lunch served 11:30-16:00, dinner 17:30-22:00, nightclub FriSat after 22:00 (entrance fee 100kr), closed Sun; 3311 0500, www.cafeaporta.dk; Doubling as a nightclub after dark, the pricey A Porta Eta is situated a mere ten feet from the Kongens Nytorv Metro entrance and is a newly-renovated, art deco style bistro, with scrupulous service and an accommodative atmosphere.

and maintaining his overall health. So what does all this have to do with today’s recipe? Simple. Instead of turning to your standard cookie that contains butter and eggs, why not try one that not only tastes fantastic but is made sans animal products. Loaded with fruit, nuts, and coconut, it’s the perfect treat alongside a mug of hot tea or coffee. Just the thing to warm up during these chilly autumn days. Go ahead and play with the ingredients. Can’t find dried blueberries? Cranberries are a great substitute. Don’t have shelled pistachios on hand? Pumpkin seeds, walnuts, or sliced almonds are equally good. If you are feeling health-conscious, political, or environmental, these cookies fit the bill. On the other hand, it’s totally okay if you just want a sweet treat. $ $ $
Cap Horn Nyhavn 21, Cph K; open Mon-Fri 10:00-00:00, Sat-Sun 09:00-00:00; 3312 8504; starters from 99kr, main courses from 139kr, desserts from 39kr; see www.caphorn.dk for special events Nyhavn, the old harbour, is an idyllic area of magic and hygge what the Danes like to say when referring to anything that is cosy, charming, or delightful: all qualities Cap Horn has in abundance. Its simple menu boasts a fine selection of organic, homemade Danish fare, with a touch of seasonal influence. There were too highlights: the veal, pumpkin, mushrooms and potatoes with amazing truffle sauce (a ‘best ever veal experience) and the chocolate cake (‘Oh My God’), whih was possibly the best chocolate cake ever! MM BioMio Halmtorvet 19, 1700 Cph V; open daily 12:00-24:00 (later Fri and Sat), kitchen open 12:00-22:00; 3331 2000; starters 75kr, mains 135kr; www. biomio.dk Located in an old warehouse next to trendy Kødbyen, Bio Mio is certainly unusual for conservative Copenhagen. It’s stylish without being pretentious, fast enough that they don’t go crazy waiting for food, and loud enough that they can make a racket without anyone raising an eyebrow. JH SushiTreat Fox Jarmers Plads 3, Cph V; open Mon-Thu 16:30-22:00, Fri-Sat 16:30-24:00 with Club Treat from 22:00-02:00; 3338 7030 The newly-opened restaurant SushiTreat at the Hotel Fox serves the best California-style sushi in the city, offers an impressive drinks and wine card, and a completely unique atmosphere on Friday and Saturday nights when you can order sushi until 2am while listening to some of the city’s best DJs .

Delicious Vegan Cookies (adapted from Alicia Silverstone*)
250 ml rolled oats 175 ml all-purpose flour 75 ml brown sugar 5.0 ml (small spoonful) cream of tartar (omit if unavailable to you) 5.0 ml baking soda 2.5 ml sea salt 80 g maple syrup 115 g vegetable oil 5.0 ml vanilla extract 60 ml dried blueberries (or cranberries, raisins, apricots) 60 ml toasted pistachios (or other nuts) 60 ml unsweetened coconut flakes MIX THE OATS, flour, brown sugar, tartar, soda, and salt in a large bowl.

Oysters & Grill Sjællandsgade 1B, 2200 Copenhagen N; open Mon-Sat 17:30-24:00, Sun 12:00-21:00; oysters cost 15-35kr each, main courses cost 135-185kr; 7020 6171; www.cofoco.dk Oysters & Grill is not rocket science, yet it give diners in Copenhagen access to fresh and delicious food at reasonable prices with an emphasis on seafood, fish and meats, which are prepared simply and flavourfully. NA Thai Flavours Vesterbrogade 30, Cph V; open Sun-Thu 12:00-23:00, Fri-Sat 12:00-23:30; Starters 60kr, mains 100kr; 3331 3170, thaiflavours30@gmail.com; www.thaiflavours.dk A worthy exponent of the Thai kitchen has opened recently in Vesterbro, just one block from the Planetarium and the lakes. The utterly unpretentious yet stylish Thai Flavours has a hospitable and authentic atmosphere and walls that let you breathe. KRG Saga Queen Havnegade 31, Cph K (near Nyhavn); sails twice Thu-Sat at 13:00 (lunch ) & 19:00 (dinner); reservations 4675 6460 & info@sagaqueen.dk; www. sagaqueen.dk The city’s only restaurant cruise ship, the Saga Queen offers a two-hour lunch cruise and a three-hour dinner cruise.

Barely believable that this rare meat can taste this good
Restaurant manager Bonnie Reinwald (left) enjoys the bare-faced banter she has with guests about their experience
to my surprise, however, the first thing I noticed was the smell wafting from the plate – a mouth-watering combination of mushrooms and red wine. Mixed with chanterelle mushrooms and red wine risotto, the bear was minced and well concealed. Specifically selected to fit the chanterelle’s taste in the risotto, the wine served with this course came from the Langhe region of Italy and also contained undertones of mushrooms. Despite the mushroom theme of this course, the first bites of the risotto quickly reminded me that I was eating bear – and it was unlike anything I
SUNDAY BRUNCH
MANY THINGS in life taste like chicken. Bear, however, is most certainly not one of them. Taking a walk on the wild side, Reinwald’s Restaurant is offering wild bear as a rare seasonal addition to their menu. Hailing from the northern regions of Sweden, the bears are taken directly from the wild, providing a bona fide taste of Scandinavia. Every year, the Swedish authorities have a cull, and most of the bears end up being eaten within their borders. Fortunately for us, Reinwald’s in Copenhagen has an inside track, and as the only restaurant in the whole of Denmark allowed to serve bear, this year it has three of the beasts to serve. The meat typically lasts four or five weeks. Currently, they are in their second week, so those looking to unleash their taste buds into the wild better hurry so they don’t miss out on this oncea-year chance! Bear meat has a strong gamey taste, something that manager Bonnie Reinwald enjoys discussing with guests. “People have many different opinions on the taste and it’s fun to have a dialogue with the guests about what they prefer,” she told InOut when we visited. “The flavours are strong compared to beef and lamb, which can be too much for people.” Diners have the option of choosing the lighter three-course meal that includes a soup starter, a main of bear with juniper berries, caramelised onions and mashed potatoes, and dessert. According to Reinwald, the bear menu is mixed with elements that bears tend to eat in the wild – nuts, salmon, berries – to make the theme complete. For those with an enormous appetite, there is also the five-course option, where each dish is paired with a carefully selected wine meant to complement and balance the strong tastes. My dining partner and I decided that if we were going to try bear, we might as well go all out. A stranger to exotic dishes, I must admit that the most adventurous food I had previously tried was duck – something many would hardly consider unusual. With that being said, I was glad the meal began with a less intimidating crab broth served with a poached quail egg and large crouton. Extremely rich and thick, the broth was delightfully flavoursome, yet without the overpowering taste of seafood. Following a salad, the first big moment of the night was finally upon us, and even after three glasses of wine, I remained apprehensive when the waiter brought out the first steaming platter of bear. Much
had ever before tasted. It was more intense than beef, more ‘game-like’ than venison and definitely nothing like chicken. Quickly filling up, the next main arrived: the bear roast. Paired with morels (also from Sweden) in a port wine sauce, sweet potatoes, roasted pears and honeycandied cranberries, this dish definitely fit the ‘eating like a bear while eating bear theme’. “I feel like we are in the wilderness and eating a wild bear that was cooked over the campfire with a few delectable ingredients,” my dining partner commented.
The braised bear, which Reinwald warned can be “too gamey for some” was actually my favourite of the night. Perhaps this was because it tasted a bit like roast beef, which was a pleasant surprise after the earlier warnings. Not only had I survived my bear experience, but it had been quite pleasurable. Finally, the dessert consisted of truffles and crushed almonds with Bailey’s Irish cream ice cream – a perfect ending to a meal that was unexpectedly ‘bearable’. .

MIX Copenhagen Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Trans Film Festival Cinemateket (Gothersgade 55) and Empire Bio (Guldbergsgade 29); tickets: 75kr per film, six-movie pass: 375kr; www.mixcopenhagen.dk

HIS year the Copenhagen Gay & Lesbian Film Festival has been rebranded in collaboration with MIX Copenhagen as the MIX Copenhagen Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Trans Film Festival. Lasting until 30 October, this festival promises to bring a focus on sex and sexuality with a diverse collection of films from around the world, including a large number of films in English. While there will be the usual suspects of kinky leather, romance, laughter, shock tactics and great sex scenes, there will also be more of a focus this year on transsexual people with the new concept of SST 2012, which aims to ‘Stop the medicalisation of trans people’. With over 100 films, loads of Q&A sessions, debates, parties and an art exhibition crammed into ten days, the problem isn’t finding anything to suit, but rather finding enough time to view as many of these fantastic films as possible. One film that is sure to be a standout is the opening film, Becoming Chaz, which is about Cher’s daughter who now lives as a man. The film follows the first year of Chaz Bono’s very public media-monitored gender reassignment, from testosterone therapy to his breast surgery. Featuring footage from Chaz’s childhood and an interview with Cher herself, the film provides an intimate and remarkably

honest insight into the challenges transitioning poses. This year there will also be many film themes, amongst them ‘Are you a movie Germaniac?, a subject that aims to address the question of where German film is heading into the new decade. Whilst many of the films featured have received little attention outside of Germany, they indicate that the German film industry is far from stagnating. One of the interesting films is expected to be ‘Harvest’, which tells the story of a quiet man, Marko, who’s finishing his training as a farmer when a new apprentice, Jacob, shows up on
the scene. Shot in the countryside, this film portrays a beautiful love that is only amplified by the calm and picturesque setting. Other films from this category include ‘Romeos’, ‘Looking for Simon’ and ‘Prince in Hell’. For those seeking other international films in English there is the theme ‘If you’re going to San Francisco’, which reflects upon the fact that 30 years after the first HIV diagnosis in San Francisco, the city is proof that ‘what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger’. Other international themes include ‘Yes we Canada’ and ‘British Broads’.
where boys without dicks and girls without vaginas make out. It is sexual pleasure outside white heterosexual supremacy. It is the riot of sexual freaks.” This theme is sure to cause controversy and with most of the films containing explicit sex scenes, this may not be for everyone, although it promises to be an eye opener. So get out of the closet and into the cinema to support the Copenhagen Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Trans Film Festival - one of the oldest LGBT film festivals in the world, still going strong in its 26th year.
Closet sci-fi fans shouldn’t despair as there is also the fun theme ‘Beam me up, Hottie’. Amongst the films playing is the quirky ‘Codependent lesbian space alien seeks same’, which tells the story of three lesbian space aliens on Earth. With a mix of cheap Ed Wood-inspired special effects, the awkwardness of a Woody Allen comedy and a twist of X-Files, this film is clearly a must-see for every sci-fi geek. For those who prefer it hot, there is always the ‘Post Porn’ theme. According to Beatriz Preciado, the queer theorist and author, “Postporn is a feminist, trans, queer sexual-guerrilla

New this Week George Harrison: living in the material World Dir: Martin Scorsese; UK documentary, 2011, 208 mins; Terry Gilliam, George Harrison, Paul McCartney “Scorsese has accomplished the best documentary that is probably possible,” writes the Chicago Sun-Times. George Harrison: Living in the Material World takes viewers on the musical and spiritual voyage that was Harrison’s life. With very little concert footage, it focuses more on archival interviews, news footage, and an impressive selection of talking heads. While the film takes a generally respectful tone toward its subject, a decidedly conflicted picture of Harrison emerges. In their words, he was “a red-blooded man” (Paul McCartney) prone to “anger” (Ringo Starr) with “a very extreme personality [that led him] very heavily into drugs” (Klaus Voormann). Time magazine has hailed the film a “sonorous tribute to the pop idol, movie producer, spiritual searcher and constant gardener.” EM
Paranormal Activity 3 Dir: Henry Joost & Ariel Schulman; US horror, 2011, 84 mins, Katie Featherston Just like with Paranormal Activity 2, the film has skipped the press screenings and saved the premiere for the people who count – the airheads who’ll watch any sequel because it’s a safe bet. This threequel is actually a prequel, time warping back to 1988 where it fills
in the blanks as to how sisters Katie and Kristi were tormented in their childhood before enduring a resurgence of hauntings as adults. Or are they just clinically insane? Who cares? Go at your own risk to a film that has a high Rotten Tomatoes rating but hasn’t yet debuted in the US. EM/BH
Animatronic Animation festival
Husets Biograf, Magstræde 14, Cph K; Thu (Oct 20), Fri & Sat, 19:00 & 21:00; tickets 60-70kr per show, 70kr for both shows on Fri; www. husetmagstraede.dk Animatronics refers to the use of mechatronics to create machines (or in the case of movie making – puppets) that seem animate rather than robotic. The technology behind animatronics has become more advanced and sophisticated over the years, making the puppets even more realistic and lifelike. Thursday and Saturday night sees British musician Chris Walker play an original live (improvised) soundtrack to Jiri Trnka’s legendary animated parable The Hand, as well as The Devil’s Mill. Also playing will be Of Dolls and Murder by Susan Marks. A Baltimore-produced film, it tells the history of dolls and doll houses as used in police reconstructions of crime scenes. Friday night sees a return of last year’s most popular screening: The Martha Colburn Retrospective. Her short films are famous in the underground for their joyous and exuberant perversity. Following that is The Suzan Pitt Retrospective. Pitt is known for creating surreal, psychological animation with powerful, trancelike explorations into the realm of the subconscious. EM

Abduction (11)
Dir: Nicolas Winding Refn; 2011; 95 mins; Ryan Gosling, Carey Mulligan Make sure you’re in your seats early for this one or else you’ll miss one of the most brilliant opening scenes in a movie ... ever. Refn manages to build extraordinary tension before igniting brief outbursts of violence. Sheer brilliance! KE
Dir: John Singleton; US action, 2011, 106 mins; Taylor Lautner, Lily Collins, Michael Nyquist, Abduction is a fast and furious ride in which violent things will happen whether the plot has prepared for them or not. Realism and filmic integrity are sacrificed for the obligatory and predictable Hollywood-isms. The story runs that one night while working on a school project with a cute girl, Nathan (Lautner) discovers his baby picture on a missing children’s website. One ill-advised phone call later and he finds himself in a sinister web of corruption and hitmen. So who is it for? The formula of having a grim subtext frequently eclipsed by scenes of animal magnetism may be suitable for couples out on a date but we need to call a spade a spade - Abduction is frenzied, flashy and, not surprisingly, pretty shallow. KG
One Day (7) Dir: Lone Scherfig; UK/US drama, 2011,107 min; Anne Hathaway, Jim Sturgess, Patricia Clarkson Everyone could probably point to a past event of which the consequences have literally dictated who and where they are today. ‘One Day’ is a meditation on this theme with a bit more in the mix. The nicely interwoven themes, and the generally believable acting have the film living up to its own ambitious intentions, delivering an emotional punch in the gut. KG
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows ii (11) Dir: David Yates; 2011, 130 mins; Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint The Harry Potter finale ended an era last July. Cinematic magic follows our heroic threesome, and with a litany of impossible foes and an action-packed battle sequence finale, it’s one of the better HP films. SS
Crazy, Stupid, love (7) Dir: Glenn Ficarra, John Requa; 2011; 118 mins; Steve Carell, Julianne Moore, Ryan Gosling Carell re-enacts his 40-Year-Old Virgin character in this fluffy, finely manicured romcom. He and Gosling make an appealing buddy couple, with Gosling alluring as a lithe and ruthless tomcat. Pleasure can be had watching this; however the slapstick finale feels hopelessly banal. AS
Johnny English Reborn Dir: Oliver Parker; UK com, 2011, 101 mins; Rowan Atkinson, Gillian Anderson, Dominic West Not knowing whether to take itself seriously or be goofball Bean funny, Johnny English Reborn hovers in the dreaded middle ground of comic purgatory. The latest in a long, long line of Bond parodies, Johnny English Reborn sees Johnny English in a Tibet monastery trying to forget his embarrassing debacle in Mozambique. His superiors in MI7 have all but forgotten about him until a job comes up that only he can do, so he is reluctantly summoned back to the ministry. The comedic theme of getting wiser as one gets older allows our hero to occasionally downplay some scenes to terrific effect. Bottom line: It has some LOL moments and fans of Atkinson will still probably love this movie, though there is less Mr Bean and more Blackadder this time around. KE
footloose Dir: Craig Brewer; US dance, 2011, 100 mins; Kenny Wormald, Julianne Hough, Dennis Quaid, Andie MacDowell For many who grew up loving this classic film, this remake will no doubt destroy a story that for so many people was almost flawless. While much sexier than the original, the film lacks depth and character development. The character of McCormack is likeable enough but the director’s decision to make him less angstridden is often irritating. JOS
G19
Also Playing Submarine (7) Dir: Richard Ayoade; 2010; 92 mins; Craig Roberts, Noah Taylor, Sally Hawkins. Set on the Welsh seaside, this gently stirring coming of age film is darkly funny and intriguing. However don’t expect a catchy pace - the film gently saunters along much like a submarine with a little too much fluff in some spots. KE
Bobby fischer Against the World (11) Dir: Liz Garbus; 2011; 93 min Bobby Fischer, Regina Fischer This is a poignant and unsettling film, but Garbus provides no revelations for anyone who has followed Fischer’s story. AS
Horrible Bosses (11) Dir: Seth Gordon; 2011; 100 mins; Jason Bateman, Charlie Day Ferociously plot-driven with several hilarious scenes, Horrible Bosses unfolds like dominos tumbling faster and louder. KRG
Page One: inside the New York Times (15) Dir: Andrew Rossi; US doc, 2011, 88 mins Clearly aimed at media nerds, the film is an unashamed labour of love revealing Rossi’s admiration and respect for the grand old ‘Grey Lady’. AS

PICK O THE W F EEK
Homeland
spor t THE W OF EEK
NR2, Mon 22:40
CHOOSING A PICK was difficult this week so let’s call it a draw. First off, Homeland stars Claire Danes as a CIA op who believes war hero Damien Lewis (the ginger major from Band of Brothers – the reallife guy died in January) might have been converted to Al Qaeda’s cause during a stay in one of their caves. The first episode only broadcast in the States on October 2 – looks like oil-rich Norway has finally paid its bill for the Eurovision Song Contest. “Once you watch the first episode, it’s going to be hard standing the wait for the next,” promises the Wall Street Journal. “You don’t get this sort of stylish and challenging stuff very frequently - adult subject matter treated maturely in a series that makes you squirm and think,” chimed the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Another British actor, Andrew Lincoln (Egg in This Life), who you always suspected might make it big one day, is the gun-toting star of the acclaimed The Walking Dead (a 82 Metacritic score to Homeland’s 91) - a zombie thriller based on a comic book that has been developed for TV by Frank Darabont, the director of The Shawshank Redemption. “This is the scariest series I’ve ever seen,” praised People Weekly. “Dead is beautifully shot, but what it’s shooting are former humans with rotting skin and bleating agonised groans,” observed Entertainment Weekly. “And like the comics, there’s great, grim humour.” Darabont “defies the predictabilities of the horror genre, infusing the recipe with more storytelling elan”, praised The Hollywood Reporter.
Elsewhere, there’s a chance to watch The Wire from the start (SV1, Fri 23:45); TV3 Puls are showing the first season of The Big C (Mon-Thu 23:00); the Rugby World Cup final (TV2 Sport, Sun 10:00) looks like a foregone conclusion, but that’s what England and Wales said; Separate Lives (SV4, Mon 23:00) tackles the subject of NR2, Mon 22:40 Homeland siamese twins - as intrusively as possible; Surviving Hitler - A Love Story (DR K, Mon 20:50 & Tue 19:00) details one of the lesser know plots to kill the Fuhrer; and Raiders of the Lost Gold (DR K, Wed 21:30) documents the search for the treasures the Japanese looted from its empire during World War Two – a tale so extraordinary you half expect Indiana Jones to turn up.
