Films that Avert the Idea Animation’s Only for Kids
I hate the idea that animation’s for kids; just because it’s animated doesn’t mean that it’s some silly cartoon and shouldn’t be taken seriously.

The Madsen brothers' critically acclaimed, festive, and musical Dommedagsshow (Doomsday Show) is about disasters, Kamchatka crabs, and the darkest corners of the mind. The starting point is, of course, scientific, and there is naturally plenty of wonderful music and fun to soften the worst passages. And most importantly of all: it all ends happily. In addition to appearing on stage themselves, Peter Lund Madsen and Anders Lund Madsen have written the lyrics for Enden er nær (The End is Near), and they are accompanied by Strygerkvartet i guld, the international mime troupe Das Fleischkvartet des Bielefelds, and Denmark's best singers, Martin Ullits Dahl and Billie Koppel. Maria Vinterberg directed, and the set design is by Marianne Nilsson. The music was composed by Teitur and Bent Fabricius-Bjerre.

What are we willing to walk through to see our dreams come to pass? Our minds might be so wholly alive with the passions we carry and the plans we make to see these things become all we wish them to be, yet life doesn’t always want to come alongside. Instead, obstacles arise, both physical and mental, which attempt to dissuade us or even prevent us from moving forward, stalling or stagnating the momentum to achieve what we desire. The age-old question remains….can we overcome? Or will we BE overcome?
Ultimately, Wicked is a story about the cost of being othered, the pain of being misnamed, and the quiet revolution of standing in your truth.
