Denmark's renowned social experiment, the Free City of Christiania, comes under loving scrutiny in this feature-length documentary. Sitting on the edge of metropolitan Copenhagen, the Free City is seen in all its splendor, some of it obviously problematic, of living with drugs, high-minded ideals, common sense, too, plus fanciful happenings to offset the often brutal ways of the world outside.
