Shattering film on prejudice, political retoric and the power of language. Director Helle Hansen has in her documentary film The Power of Words mixed statements from the political pulpit with elements of televised debates in the last 25 years. Attitudes previously reserved for the extreme right, have gradually been accepted by the broader political public in Denmark. cb
