Thomas Blachman sits with a male guest on leather armchairs in a black television studio and comments on the naked and silent women posing in posture. Both men give instructions on how the women should face themselves and start a conversation about women's bodies and men's roles. The format is one of the most watched programs on the station DR 2 and sparked a great discussion about whether the program is sexist.
