Children's language crosses borders

Danish
Special screening of the film “YueYue's Denmark” about the friendship between six-year-old YueYue from China and Amy from Denmark. Across languages and cultures, they share laughs, traditions and experiences — from Christmas fun in Bogense to Chinese New Year in a small mountain village in China. A Journey Between Two Worlds
In the film, we meet YueYue, who arrives at a kindergarten in Bogense, where everything -- from the language to the food package -- is alien. Nevertheless, a friendship quickly develops between YueYue and Amy, and together they experience Danish Christmas traditions with rice porridge and Christmas trees. But the friendship goes both ways: In January, Amy travels with her parents to China to celebrate Chinese New Year in a small mountain village -- an experience filled with colorful processions, family celebrations and new impressions.

Inspired by high school stay
The idea for the film originated in 2018 when award-winning Chinese screenwriter Meng Xianming visited Nordfyns Högskole. Inspired by the meeting between Danish and Chinese children, he decided to create a film that shows how friendship can build bro between languages and cultures -- even at a young age. Filming took place in both Denmark and China in 2018-2019, but production was delayed by the corona pandemic and the special approvals required for international film cooperation in China. In late 2024, the film finally got the official Chinese screening approval, 'Dragon mark'.
Learn For Life has facilitated the filming of Yueyue's Denmark* by finding local extras, locations, film staff, etc. The Learn For Life association originates from Nordfyns Højskole and organizes study tours and cultural exchanges focusing on Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale universe, education and university traditions. **
Duration: ** Two hours, including introduction by Chinese producer Meng Changyu and secretariat leader Lisa Johansen, Learn For Life, ([learnforlife.dk] (http://learnforlife.dk))
