Movie

Den store kul-tur

1996

A wry, fast-moving satire of bureaucratic arts funding where well-meaning incompetence and petty egos turn public money into cheerful chaos.

Overview: What does a desperate mayor of culture do when he is handed a stack of millions with instructions to make it a success? What does a cultural city consultant do when he thinks all projects are equally good, and ends up spending all the money without anyone getting anything? What does a rejected artist do when he wants to create a cultural city wall? What does an alternative artist group do when they think it's all petty bourgeois crap?
How it feels: Satirical, absurd, light and cynical. Brisk and needs your attention.
About: Politics, art, corruption, class
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
