Human Library TV Show Season 2 launched

The Human Library returns with a second season of our TV-series – produced in collaboration with the Danish public service broadcaster TV2 LORRY. The season consists of 6 new episodes – each featuring one of our bestsellers.

In the episodes the viewers or readers as we like to call them, are welcomed into the life and story of our book. The authentic concept was a huge hit, and the first season became the most streamed series produced by TV2 LORRY. Also airing on four other regional channels around the country. The new season will airing on six out of the eight regional public service broadcasters in Denmark, during the fall.

Follow the links below, to get a televised experience out of the ordinary! There could be smiles and tears, and we promise that the life-affirming stories, will leave you with more than your average Netflix-show!

In the first season viewers were invited to read six of our books, that represent the diversity in our collection. You can gain insight into the lives of a Body Modified, Bipolar, Roma, Autism, Disabled, and an Islamic Convert! Watch them here.

The premiere of the second season is this Friday – April 20th – and the series begins with Oskar, who is a Victim of Bullying. Each Friday the next six weeks will present a new topic. Follow all the shows and you will be introduced to the stories of a free church christian, a victim of stalking, a long-term unemployed, an anorectic and a victim of incest. It will – without a doubt – be a learning experience and an opportunity to challenge what you think you know about others! ENJOY!

Human Library TV series to premier in Denmark

The Human Library and Danish Broadcaster TV2 Lorry are proud to announce the first Human Library TV Show to ever air. Starting April 25th and six weeks onward viewers are invited to become readers of our very special bookshelf full of Bestsellers.

One book in each episode

Every week will feature a new publication that will invite viewers into a conversation about some of the most stigmatized groups in our communities. The running time of the show will be 28 minutes allowing for the book to properly display its content. The Human Library appreciates the opportunity to reach thousands of viewers each week and hope those who will follow the show will find answers to some of their own questions.

Honest TV

The format has been developed in close corporation with TV2 Lorry to ensure as true a transfer of the concept as possible under the production conditions and we are very excited about the results and we have dubbed it “Honest TV”. No unneccessary dramatization, no need for sensationalizing as the truth is more than enough. Real people in honest and open conversations about challenging and often very personal and stigmatizing issues.

Free to viewers

The Human Library TV show will air every Tuesday at 9 pm and can also be streamed for free online on TV2 Lorry´s website. However the format is in Danish language only and there are no subtitles available (we apologise). The first season will include Bestsellers on being Autistic, Body Modified, Bipolar and more. Six topix for six weeks. You can watch the first episode online already using the link below:
