INTERNATIONAL DAYS
On selected days, you can watch premiere films with English subtitles at BIFFEN INTERNATIONAL - a concept targeted at North Jutland's non-Danish audience. On other days, the films are shown in their original language but with Danish subtitles.
Furthermore, Biffen shows a Cinematheque film (classics, cult films, etc.) every Tuesday night and these films are often with English subtitles as well. The Cinematheque films with English subtitles or dialogue are listed below.
The Cinematheque is part of the Danish Film Institute and has an extensive collection of films that gives today's audiences a chance to experience world cinema spanning from the very beginning of film history to the latest digital releases.

The Flamenco Guitar of Yerai Cortés
Premiere June 18
Spanish dialogue with English subtitles.
Spanish Grammy-award-winning rapper Antón Álvarez, better known as C. Tangana, makes his directorial debut with this intimate look at the life of flamenco guitar player Yerai Cortés. Told through a deeper look into the history of the musician’s family, this poignant documentary sensitively explores gypsy culture through dissecting familial tragedies and traumas, looking at how such pain seeps into — and fuels — creativity. What may look like a traditional music documentary at first turns into a much more nuanced, rich snapshot of flamenco and its deep-rooted connections with notions of identity, prejudice, and community.
