Preview: Denmark the State of Happiness

Denmark - the State of Happiness
A new film by Lesley Riddoch released on YouTube March 2024.

They are amongst the happiest people on earth, with the world’s best energy system, a GDP per capita almost a third higher than Britain, more bikes in daily use than the Netherlands, a swim just 15 mins away from every Copenhagen resident and state-run TV that changed the face of drama with Borgen, the Killing and the Bridge. Denmark is small (with about half Scotland's land mass and the same population). It has less oil/coal/gas to fuel its economy and lost an empire - just like Britain. Yet the Danes have bounced back to become the modern, eco-leaders of Europe. How did they do it?
The film is the latest in a series of Nordic films that includes Norway, Iceland, Faroes and Estonia - all free to view on this channel - and is being shown in cinemas, town halls and other venues across Scotland in Jan/Feb/March 2024. Each screening has a Q&A with Lesley afterwards. List and booking links here - https://lesleyriddoch.com/events. Film will be on YouTube once all screenings are complete - mid March 2024.
