    I know their have been screenings of this movie before , but this notice is for any newbies here that may not have seen it previously. It is scheduled to screen at 10:25 pm on Ch.32 SBS2 Sun.25/8/13 . Maybe other states in Australia can view it on-line , or request it be shown by SBS in their state.

    It is an interesting movie , and apart from minor flaws , pretty accurate despite the beard,though I am told the danes are a bit more liberal than the west.

    The real / actual jehovahs witness this story is based on has a cameo appearance near the end of this movie in the train sequence.

    Please let me know if you watch it and your thoughts about it .

    Funny how some people got all hung up on the beard thing - yes, in Scandinavia it's quite possible to see elders with beards.

    The Danish title is To verdener. I saw it a few years ago. It's a fairly accuratre depiction, and based on a true story of a girl named Tabita.

    I rented it from the library, in the U.S. Found it quite enjoyable and thought it was well done. Enjoy, for those of you watching tonight.

    The term Scandinavia refer to three different countries, close, similar in some ways, yet different in others.

    Elders having beards are accepted in Denmark, whereas it is not accepted in Sweden in Norway. Een moustaches are still not accepted in many countries in thouse countries, even for regular publishers, e.g. if you are to be enrolled in the TMS.
