From Darkness Towards Light
Spanning three generations, the film depicts life in Copenhagen from the perspective of the working class. The film portrays the development of the city, the new opportunities arising and the improved living conditions created as the welfare state expands. ‘From darkness towards light’ is Denmark’s first-ever Social Democratic propaganda film, and it was part of the election campaign leading up to the local elections in 1929.

I love this movie so much
After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
