Hello dear reader,
We have a packed event scene this week. Not only is St. Patrick's Day coming up, but one of Europe’s largest documentary festivals, CPH:DOX, is finally back. I strongly recommend you to check out the festival's programme if you haven't already—it's pretty amazing. Alright, let’s dive right in, shall we:
Copenhagen
March 12: Women’s underwear since 1875 — Do you know the Rule 34? “If it exists or can be imagined, there’s Internet porn of it.” Denmark’s event scene feels like that sometimes. Imagine something, there’s probably an event, a workshop, a panel about it happening out there. So anyway, if you’re interested in touching some underwear, check this one out, there’s also a talk, but it’s in Danish. 25 DKK
