From his home in Copenhagen, a city he's called home for more than a decade, Texas-born Oscar-nominated American-Danish filmmaker JOSHUA OPPENHEIMER talks about his new narrative film The End (2024), an apocalyptic musical. Joshua discusses The End alongside his Oscar-nominated documentary films The Act of Killing (2012) and The Look of Silence (2014), and how the three provocative and divisive projects are mirrors to challenge us to look at ourselves.Joshua selects a work by Pieter Bruegel the Elder from the SMK collection.https://open.smk.dk/en/artwork/image/KMS1639(Photographer: Pascal Bünning)----------We invite you to subscribe to Danish Originals for weekly episodes.
