From her home in Copenhagen, Robert-nominated Danish actor, writer, stand-up comedian, television host, and author METTE LISBY recalls her 12-year residence in Los Angeles, which followed a five-year stay in London, as a period of positivity and possibility. From her time as a pioneer female stand-up comic in the early 1990s to her current book projects, Mette shares how it's all been a journey of learning and of gathering experiences. Mette selects a work by P.C. Skovgaard from the SMK collection. https://open.smk.dk/en/artwork/image/KMS4580 (Photographer: Anja Ekstrøm) ---------- We invite you to subscribe to Danish Originals for weekly episodes.
