Filmbyen

Filmbyen

Filmbyen is a huge film studio complex located in Hvidovre just outside Copenhagen, Denmark.

Filmbyen is a former military base. It houses many film-related companies. Many films and TV-series have been shot there.

It was founded by Lars von Trier and Peter Aalbæk Jensen's company Zentropa in 1997 and as of 2007 is still owned and run by Zentropa.

The story of Filmbyen, its people and companies is told in Thomas Vilhelm's book "Filmbyen" (Ekstra Bladets Forlag, 2007) or in the movie "Filmbyen, the new Mecqua of cinema" from the director Pablo Tréhin-Marçot (France/ 2007).
