En historie om en pigetrio (2009)

'Aarhus Stories' is the result of an unconventional partnership between film directors and song writers.

The films have all been shot in Aarhus in 24 hours, and they all last three to ten minutes. Kasper Winding and Thomas Blachman - both of them extremely productive, charismatic drummers and personalities - introduce us to this take on a 2009 Aarhus Story.
