UiWE made a film about the NYP (Netværk for yngre planlæggere/ Network for Young Planners) Wintercamp held by Amager Vest Lokaludvalg at ITU in January. The 14-minute film documents the process as well as the ideas proposed to develop the diverse area of Amager Vest. Showing cases, discussions, workflow and presentations, the film gives an impression of the NYP cross-disciplinary approach to planning.

This autumn we produced 11 short films capturing the events of LYSLYD– a regional project revolving around the development of urban culture, business & innovation in the Copenhagen region. The result is 11 stories from today’s urban and suburban Denmark mirrored in the projects of Danish and international artists.
”Herlev i Farver” and ”Herlev’s Stemmer” (”Herlev in Colour” / ”The Voices of Herlev”) is a film about two audio walks by Claus Handberg taking place in Herlev DK.
Battle of Rabbit Town offers a rarely seen look into the corruption and dedication of the political back alleys of Brazil, following two rivalling community leaders in a favela in Recife, North Brazil, during a tough election for city government.
The documentary raises fundamental questions about a democracy, torn between ideals and reality. Battle of Rabbit Town premiered at Copenhagen Dox 2008. Read more at www.battleofrabbittown.com
