“AN ‘inspiring’ film which shines a light on why Denmark is one of the happiest nations on earth is set to shown across Scotland in the new year.
Denmark: The State of Happiness has been produced by journalist Lesley Riddoch and filmmaker Charlie Stuart and aims to inspire Scots to think differently about how a small country can be run.
It is the latest in a series of films Riddoch has already presented on Estonia, Norway, Iceland and the Faroes.
Despite how Denmark is a small nation, the GDP per capita is almost a third higher than in Britain, it has one of the world’s best energy systems and more than half the population of its capital city of Copenhagen travel to work on bikes.” Steph Brawn, The National.

Lesley Riddoch chats with Jim Byrne about her film ‘Denmark – The State of Happiness’. Jim and Pat’s West End Chat Podcast.
