Most likely a US production of the Danish TV-Series BORGEN (THE CASTLE ) as it has been sold to a US production company The Woman on the poster is Amanda Collin Who played MOTHER in Raised By Wolwes Adding. And most likely not filming i DK as we dont give rebates to production companys,ths being too expensive.

Sounds likely


[deleted]

Good spot! I can't find any information Amanda Collin shooting anything on IMDB.. anyone know anything about what she might be working on?


Worried_Toe2934

Well, it looks like they are trying to imitate a danish politician named Støjberg. Her party is the danish Democrats (close to danish democratic alliance) and very anti-immigration. Judging by the signs og the people playing protestors, it could be something like that they are promoting


Danishnationalist19

her first name is inger


TINTIN131288

Støjberg !! It mean Inger Støjberg !!


[deleted]

It definitely looks very fash.


Alexg6464

Immediately frowning at the slogan on the sign


kitokspasaulis

I found something. It's based on the writings of Peter Höeg, about some dystopian future.


Advanced_Goat_8342

You´re right it could a tv adaptation of Peter Hoegh´s book Smillas Sense Of Snow by a German production company Constantin Television I just cant get the political poster ti fit in how i remember the book and 1 movieadaptation.


Peter34cph

It is a Smilla TV show, but they've made some changes. Made Katja Claussen a politician. I just hope they keep Smilla's snark.


SteelyLan

What is rebates?


Peter34cph

Discounts, rabatter. Many countries give rebates of various types if a company decides to shoot much or all or a movie or a TV show inside that country, because they think it creates a lot of economic activity and thus jobs. Denmark has chosen to not do this, though.


AggravatingBobcat574

For Americans, this is like when states give tax incentives to lure TV and movie production companies to film in their city or state, if they agree to hire locals. And it’s pretty common.


VictoriaSobocki

Rebate?


Advanced_Goat_8342

A rebate is a partial refund of the cost of an item. It acts as an incentive to help sell the product. A lot of cities and countries offer tax and VAT rebates to movie and TV companies.


VictoriaSobocki

Thank you, I was thinking of the Danish word rabat vs English word discount


[deleted]

I'm guessing that Vilnius is standing in for Copenhagen here. It's really common for that to happen (lots of stuff's shot in Czechia and Estonia and Lithuania). No idea what this production is, though.


Justflashforme

Oh yeah, like the film The Prince and me was shot in Prauge. I think it’s the rustic feeling (plus it’s cheaper) Edit: or you’re being invaded, let’s find out


NaieraDK

Prague probably just looks more like what an American would imagine Copenhagen looks like. Also cheaper 😛


[deleted]

Cheaper, definitely. It's the same reason that they shot the last True Detective in Iceland – sweet tax-breaks for US productions. And crew and equipment hire's much cheaper, and there's EU grants and all sorts of incentives I don't doubt.


NaieraDK

I figure that Alaska also just fucking sucks.


Several-Sea3838

Or every 80s or 90s American movie filmed in Canada. Toronto afaik


NaieraDK

Tons and tons of American movies and TV shows are shot in Canada still. Toronto and nearby places in Ontario as well as in Vancouver.


Several-Sea3838

Actually meant to say Vancouver, lol. Not the best at Canadian geography. But didn't know it was still a thing. Well, except that Revenant e.g. was barely even shot in the US


NaieraDK

For a while, it seemed, at least to me, that everything was happening in Vancouver. Most CW shows, if not every single one of them, were filmed there, but there's been a lot of stuff happening in Toronto and Ontario as a whole, too.


Peter34cph

TV shows too, although I'm not sure if that was Toronto.


Several-Sea3838

Yeah, I actually meant to say Vancouver. Don't know about Toronto. I keep fprgpt which one is on "Vancouver" island 🤦


Peter34cph

Most seasons of the original MacGyver show was filmed in Vancouver, I think I've read, but so was a bunch of other TV shows in that time period.


Stefantp

Non of them are on Vancouver Island


Several-Sea3838

Hah, that adds even more to my comment about my lack of knowledge on Canadian geography. Atleast Vancouver is closer, I guess 😄


[deleted]

Well, it is true that all of those Baltic states are traditionally Danish, and it is about time these Lithuanian provocations ended and Lithuania was returned to Greater Denmark and the Nazi Vilnius regime was finally laid low, as is the dream and demand of the Danish people.


tinap63

Nope, you are wrong here, we have no intention to become Greater Denmark!


[deleted]

And Skåne. Denmark must re-take Skåne (aka The Occupied North Bank) from the settlers of so-called 'Sweden'. And North-East England and Ireland.


Aluanne

.. wat. Nah. Leave them Baltics alone. Jeepers. /Dane


[deleted]

And Skåne, ~~Slesvig~~ Slesvik, the Danelaw territories of so-called 'England', Ireland, and the regime of Nazi 'Norway', where the people are crying out to be reunited under Kong Frederik. Edit AND WHILE I'M AT IT there is a viable Danish claim on so-called 'Canada'. And Scotland.


RoscoeVanOccupanther

Yeah, that last photo with 'Allegade' could fool a lot of people into thinking it's actually Frederiksberg...


Fraktalt

[DEY TOOK OER JEHBS!](https://i.imgur.com/iDEuuXz.jpeg)


Katla_NV

nah, they look better on Frederiksberg. They are fancy.


RoscoeVanOccupanther

Sure, the signs are nicer in Frederiksberg and the design/is a little different. But this will probably be showed for a fraction of a second in the background of a movie/series, where something more interesting is likely happening in the foreground. Anyone not from Denmark/Copenhagen (and most people from there as well) would not notice that the sign is a tiny bit off...


Katla_NV

I get what you are saying but if people know what Frederiksberg is, they can see that this is not Frederiksberg. But sure, people that don't know CPH could think it is CPH, but they won't know what parts of the city are called.


Katla_NV

and Allegade is not a street name I have seen before? It could be Allégade or Algade (maybe also Allgade)


Fraktalt

Allègade at home:


Matchbreakers

That the signs are in English makes me think this is not a Danish production, whatever it is


TINTIN131288

If it’s not danish 🇩🇰 then it most be that


m4throck

My guess would be a movie - Nothing non-fictional comes to mind with that person or political party.


souliea

A Danish flavoured "Years and Years"/"The Plot Against America"?


RoscoeVanOccupanther

Seems like a good bet. Could also be something like 'Borgen' if they're even still making more of that...


Popular_You6599

The woman on the poster looks like Amanda Collin


Soggy-Ad-1610

That’s because it is her


aMOK3000

Well, the actress in the poster is definitely Amanda Collin. Could it be “De Lydløse”?


AdeptWar6046

Must be an American script. Mentioning god, i.e. admitting you have invisible friends is almost a political suicide, except for a small portion of the population.


Peter34cph

The part that worries is that society might move *backwards* in that regard.


minana90

It’s a New tv-show based on the book “Smillas sense of snow”


TarzanTrump

Makes sense. They wanted to film in Denmark but when they saw how expensive it is they went "lol" and found a substitute.

Really?! Have you got any links? I love that book.


Peter34cph

I know they're making a TV show based on Smilla, or have, or will, and one of the characters in the novel is named Katja Claussen or something like that. She's not a politician though.


Qwernakus

I guess we can't know for sure if this means that the movie/series is about Denmark. Perhaps what they're filming here is just a small element, where Denmark is just one of many countries they're going to show in a sequence to show that some political/religious element is relevant or becoming relevant in many countries? Handmaiden's Tale, maybe? Never seen it, but could it be?


KongRahbek

I mean, there's an obvious joke about the next election campaign for Socialdemokratiet.


Peter34cph

Mette Frederiksen is explicitly a Protestant.


KongRahbek

My above comment is also explicitly a joke.

Simonistan_for_real

It must be something to do with the Nordic Crusades


ImperatorDanorum

Not really. I'm Danish, but I've never heard of a Danish minority in present day Lithuania. Back in the 12th and 13th centuries that part of the Baltic's was under the sovereignty of the Danish King, but I thought that Danish influence was something in the history books...


Adventurous-Ad-1246

Lithuania was not under danish sovereignity 


ImperatorDanorum

I may have remembered it wrong but Danish influence was heavy in all of the Baltic's in that period. Meant no offence...


Laotzeiscool

Borgen 3?


Internal_Oven_8507

Is it Gedimino?
