København ved Nat
Copenhagen by night
Year: 1910

The women head to the theatre, leaving their husbands to their card games. They plan to meet up again after the show. Now that their wives have gone out, the lads hit the streets of Copenhagen to play the ladies’ men.

Slightly tipsy, they wind up in a dive and in bad company. Filled with twists and turns, Copenhagen by night reveals its prostitutes and police stations. A bevy of Danish actors set the pace for a larger-than-life comedy. But who’s going to be the dupe when all is said and done?
