Ungdomshuset (literally "the Youth House") was the popular name of the
building formally named Folkets Hus ("House of the People") located on
Jagtvej 69 in Nørrebro, Copenhagen, which functioned as an underground
scene venue for music and rendezvous point for varying anarchist and
leftist groups from 1982 until 2007. On 1 March 2007 Ungdomshuset was
cleared of its occupants by the police at about 7:00 in the morning,
sparking days of intense rioting and giving birth to a widespread
social movement that fought for a new space for alternative culture.
"69", directed and shot by first-time filmmaker Nikolaj Viborg, looks
at the dramatic events leading up to the authorities clearing
Ungdomshuset on 1 March 2007 and the conflict that ensued. The film
recently won the prestigious New Nordic Voices award at Nordisk
Panorama 2008.
There will be an opportunity to ask questions and discuss the film with volunteers from Ungdomshuset.
