Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
In Copenhagen, during the hippie era (late '60s, early '70s), the profession of "marriage broker" still existed. One part of the story of this Danish film concerns a romance between a man with this profession and the woman who is the leader of a hippie group. The hippies seek to save old buildings from the wrecker's ball by defacing rather pompous statues and public monuments and use the ensuing publicity to make a case for their cause. The other part of the story concerns the adventures of these unlikely antiquarians.
