- A collection of eight animated shorts for children. The films were directed by Jessica Laurén, based on the popular books with the same titles and produced in close collaboration with Stina Wirsén, a children's book author and illustrator. The stories focus on the characters Nallegrisen, Fågel, Talle and Kanin. They have everyday challenges that occur in life, such as quarreling with friends, and experience happy moments yet also encounter sadness in the death of a loved one - but everything is illustrated in a way that children understand. The different situations from their daily lives are subject of the following: Vem blöder?, Vem är borta?, Vem är arg?, Vems mormor?, Vem är söt?, Vem bestämmer?, Vem är död?, and Vems byxor?.
- An experimental film about unwanted childlessness in a world where normative heterosexual relationships dictate who can become parents and in what way.

- A documentary short directed by Jørgen Vestergaard about Kaptajn Voms Theatre created by Albert Erastus Daucke, widely known as "Beck" Daucke . The marionette theater traveled from 1912 to 1937 across Denmark. In 1962, Beck Daucke donated his puppets and props to the Nationalmuseets 3. afd., Dansk Folkemuseum (the National Museum's third district, the Danish Folk Museum). In a nostalgic look back at the past, Vestergaard attempts to recreate the marionette performances and techniques utilized by Daucke, thus preserving on film this aspect of early 20th century Danish culture.
- A time capsule with a bygone era captured on film, thus allowing the viewer a glimpse of life in a typical Danish town during the 1930's and 40's from actual footage from the time by photographer Svend Mikkelsen. Mikkelsen arrived in Fjerritslev in 1939, where he and his wife established a photo shop. At the same time, he acquired a 16mm film camera, and on his leisure time from the shop, began to document the everyday activities of the town from 1939 until 1949. His project was actualized into professional black-and-white movie recordings amounting to a four-hour playing time. When Svend Mikkelsen died, his son and daughter decided to donate the material to Fjerritslev Library so that it could be saved for posterity. The library and a local association engaged the film director Jørgen Vestergaard, who together with film maker Tommy Hald, spent a couple of months editing the historical silent film recordings. Utilizing the cut portions, music and speaker commentary was added and the edited version was condensed to a length of 34 minutes - which in 2016, was digitized and published on DVD.
