      Opening galla 2024

      Opening galla 2024

      Join us as we kick off the festival at the opening gala on 12 March in Koncervatoriets Koncertsal with the world premiere of Max Kestner's film 'Life and Other Problems' 

      10 years ago, the news that Marius the giraffe was put down by the Copenhagen Zoo went viral all the way from Hollywood to Chechnya. But it was also the first domino to fall in the wild thicket of existential questions asked by Max Kestner in his new, joyously adventurous film. What is life? Does consciousness exist? Where does love come from? And not least: How is everything connected – like, really? With curiosity and an open mind, Kestner embarks on a philosophical voyage around the world to look for answers to his questions. With contributions from scientists like Charles Foster and Eske Willerslev, every answer sparks three new questions. And yet, throughout the journey, we do gain insight into the great and small workings of the universe. What could have ended up as the most (self-)important picture of all time has instead turned into a funny, creative and completely unpredictable experience.

      The film is produced by Bullitt Film and in addition to being the festival’s opening film, it is also nominated for the festival’s main prize, DOX:AWARD – an award for the best and most important new films.

      After the film, CPH:DOX and To Øl offer a drink in the foyer.
