Krummerne, or The Crumbs, is a Danish film series about the family Krumborg and particularly the boy 'Krumme' (Laus Høybye). They are loosely based on Thøger Birkeland's popular children's book series.
The first film in the series, the eponymous Krummerne, was theatrically released on 4 October 1991. Despite lukewarm reviews, the film was a commercial success with over 850,000 cinema admissions, becoming one of the most watched films of all time within Denmark.[1] Notable filming took place in Kongens Lyngby and Charlottenlund.
Krummernes Jul was released as a 'TV Christmas calendar' series broadcast on TV 2 throughout the month of December 1996 in the lead up to Christmas.[7]
