Small Nation, Global Cinema offers two strategies underwriting the
transformation and globalization of contemporary Danish cinema‹the processes
of cultural circulation and the psychological efficacy of heritage. Focusing
her study on the cultural context of the international film market, Mette
Hjort argues that the New Danish Cinema presents an opportunity to
understand globalization within the culture and economy of a small nation.

³With this lucid, thrilling study of Denmark's highly successful 'cinematic
turn,' Mette Hjort brings aesthetic and policy analysis together to show how
the New Danish Cinema meets the challenges of globalization in innovative
and hopeful ways.² ‹Meaghan Morris

³A well-informed account of how the New Danish Cinema came through with
bursting talents and completely fresh ideas that broke with stereotypes and
inspired filmmakers around the world.² ‹Jørgen Leth
