6.03 years after the success of ‘The Striped Show’, the world-renowned magician and comedian Rune Klan is back on Danish stages with a new one-man show. His fifth in a row. The comedy and sharp repartee are in a league of their own, but the magic remains the focal point and unique trademark. With ‘Childless’, the charismatic Rune Klan will offer plenty of surprises, new tricks and groundbreaking ideas with his disarming manner, and a constant curiosity for the audience he loves to pamper.

This, of course, means a lot of free time and plenty of room in the calendar to shame-practice a trick or joke to ultimate perfection.

Two mountain-climbers descend into a cavern of vibrant colours and stunning formations of ice.
10.0A brief, poetic 16mm film on a simple sculptural action. What becomes apparent is the humor possible in material interactions and the tender and sometimes melodramatic symbolism of cut flowers. What begins as a reverence for natural beauty ends up pointing towards the abstract expressionism and color field work of high modernism which, in many cases eschewed the banality of such 'natural' beauty. The collaged soundtrack suggests weightier concerns, gently insistent behind the flatness of the utilitarian sounds of ripping tape.
