How we got our neighbours

Lasse Spang Olsen, Denmark, 1993

35 min.DK/Short fictionChildren's films

When you live in an ordinary house in an ordinary street, you hardly believe your own ears when you are invited on a pirate expedition, and when the whole family change into pirates, you have to rub your eyes. And when you enter a pirate vessel with some very strange golddiggers and kidnap the crew, it is almost unbelievable that these prisoners one day become quite ordinary neighbours in a quite ordinary house in a quite ordinary street. Lasse Spang Olsen has made a modern fairytale film for children based on his father Ib Spang Olsen's book.
