Some of my favorite Danes came back last night. Thanks to a Danish TV presenter on the Scandinavian level of Katie Curic, who bought a house years ago that she rented to other Danes in the television and film industries, Argelès, especially in the summer, has become Copenhagen South. Her renters bought homes that they in turn rent to other Danes in the various parts of the entertainment industry. Some make their homes here permanently, others vacation here and some come to work off season, although I suspect the warmer climate has more to do with that than escaping the diversions of home.
This family is a film producer and his surgeon wife, accompanied by his grown daughter and her handicapped son. The producer, who has won two Emmys for best foreign documentary always dresses in black. His wife is always in white. Although he is not heavy he fills up any space that he occupies with his flamboyance. She is quieter.
His daughter has sometime alone, sometime with her ex and son and then time with her son alone giving her a vacation. On a rainy day last year she was biking down to the sea to swim. For me it was too cold, but a quick reminder of the North Sea, made me understand.
I look forward to some good conversations.
