For three decades, state-sponsored short filmmaking educated Danish
citizens, promoted Denmark to the world, and shaped the careers of
renowned directors like Carl Th. Dreyer. The first book-length
study in English of a national corpus of state-sponsored
informational film, this book traces how Danish shorts on topics
including social welfare, industry, art and architecture were
commissioned, funded, produced and reviewed from the inter-war
period to the 1960s. Examining the life cycle of a representative
selection of films, and discussing their preservation and mediation
in the digital age, this book presents a detailed case study of how
informational cinema is shaped by, and indeed shapes, its cultural,
political and technological contexts.
