Dirch - hauska mies

Dirch Passer was one of Denmark's all-time most popular comedians. But he was actually a very lonely man, and was haunted by his obsessive, self-destructive desire to gain respect from the critics. Even his non-comic adaptation of Steinbeck's 'Of Mice and Men' causes the audience to laugh. This is a story of fame, and of the well-protected privacy of a broken and doubtful man.
