THE DANISH POET

Now Playing in The YouTube Screening Room: www.youtube.com/ytscreeningroom http://www.nfb.ca/thedanishpoe... OF THE 2007 OSCAR® FOR BEST SHORT SUBJECTS ANIMATIONA film by Torill KoveNarrated by Liv UllmannCan we trace the chain of events that leads to our own birth? Is our existence just coincidence? Do little things matter?The narrator of The Danish Poet considers these questions as we follow Kasper, a poet whose creative well has run dry, on a holiday to Norway to meet the famous writer, Sigrid Undset. As Kasper's quest for inspiration unfolds, it appears that a spell of bad weather, an angry dog, slippery barn planks, a careless postman, hungry goats and other seemingly unrelated factors might play important roles in the big scheme of things after all.

As in the film, theres lot of Scandinavian confusion here. The woman talking is Norwegian - not Danish, her name is Liv Ullmann. Norway's most famous actor, look her up.
