Ep 07 The Place Beyond The Waves

It's the 300th year since Danish-Norwegian priest Hans Egede claimed Greenland as part of Denmark. In 2021, the push for independence is stronger than ever, but the average Dane don't seem to realise. In this Lost in Translation episode, we investigate how Danes and Greenlanders look at each other and the stigma that surrounds Greenlanders here in Denmark, and Danes in Greenland. We speak with Greenlandic artist, musician and actor Josef Tarrak-Petrussen about Inuit culture and his experience of living in Denmark after growing up in Greenland.
