Københavnere Synopsis
Erik has just graduated as an engineer and has everything but calculations and exams on his mind: He is in Tivoli with his good friend Gorm to celebrate like true Copenhageners. Erik's snobbish mother is very concerned about his future and has picked out a suitable party for him. But what she doesn't know is that Erik will fall head over heels for the chorus girl Aase that evening.
A Sister to Salome Synopsis
When famous opera singer Elinore Duane undergoes an operation on her throat, she has a series of ether-induced visions. In one, she is transported to ancient Rome where she appears as a much-admired woman in love with Paul, a young heretic, and at odds with Lutor, the high priest. To save her love, she poisons Lutor with her ring. After several other visions which involve variations on this love triangle, Elinore awakens to discover that Lutor is actually her doctor, Sascha Jaccard, and that Paul is the son of a friend who has come to visit the recovering prima donna.
"Københavnere" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "A Sister to Salome" offers its own unique cult appeal.
