Elvis Hansen, en samfundshjælper

1988 · 76 min · ★ 4.0 · Comedy

In Nørrebro, in a property ripe for redevelopment, only one family remains: the Hansens. With Elvis as the head of the family. A welfare recipient who, sitting on the sofa with a beer in his hand, can fix the whole world situation, and Herdis Hansen, the all-embracing wife who provides electricity for her husband's TV and strolls around in a fur coat "given" to her by their son Brian. Despite the king's bailiff Kjeldsen's countless attempts to evict the Hansen family, Elvis manages to fend him off every time. To get them to move, he is offered director Knudsen's new headquarters, a villa in an affluent neighborhood in Charlottenlund, as a temporary solution.
