THE MOVIE: Film maker and artist Luke Bennett has worked closely with composer Anders Lauge Meldgaard to present the album Frisk Frugt "Den Europæiske Spejlbue" (2015) in film-form. A full length performance of the album, where the usual high speed action and editing of contemporary music videos is slowed down leaving time to dwell with the songs of the album performed in nature. Choosing the location of Møn, as a danish version of the Rügen, aiming for the scenery much loved by to the great romantic german painter Casper David Friedrich.
 
The idea is: to revolutionize our present society and elevate it to a higher and more beautiful place, it can be helpful to look back and research in what was before we laid down the corner stones of todays society. It is an attempt to bypass all common values and open up the world to new thoughts and ideas.
