3. SOUNDBITE (English) Peter Hummelgaard, Danish Justice Minister:
“The big, big difference this time is that we are doing this in a coordinated plan with the citizens of Christiania themselves. There is not only a plan for, you know, lifting up the concrete of the street and, and having police patrol it. But there are plans to how do we reinvent and rejuvenate this area of Copenhagen, how do we take it back to the citizens of Christiania. And that is the first time for 50 years that the authorities, the government, the municipality of Copenhagen have worked together with the citizens of Christiania towards that end goal.”
4. Chain of people moving cobblestone from Pusher street to big pile
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Risenga Manghezi, Christiania spokesperson:
“It is a really important thing for Christiania to do this. And cannabis is an important part of Christiania's history, but there is so much more to Christania and one of our most important things is to say no to violence, so as long as this market is unregulated and therefore violent it is a strong thing and very much in line with our ethos to say no to this violence."

7. Close of two joints
8. SOUNDBITE (English) Simon Hansen Police, Deputy Chief Superintendent:
“We expect some to try to sell. Maybe not only the pushers, maybe also people from other places, persons from other places. But we expect that some will try to sell from now on and forward. But our police efforts are going to try to prevent them.”
9. SOUNDBITE (English) no name or identity, drug dealer (not shown on camera):
“It's gonna evolve to the rest of Copenhagen. 100%. 100% is going to do that. ++JUMPCUT++ It's going to be like the rest of world, street sales. No customer service like here before. Nothing like it was here before.”
10. SOUNDBITE (English) Simon Hansen Police, Deputy Chief Superintendent:
++QUALITY AS INCOMING++
“Well, I think people, maybe buy their drugs in other places. They use other drugs, maybe that they buy locally where they live. And, the situation where Pusher street is the only place in the Copenhagen area, where you can buy cannabis, that's not the scenery anymore.“
11. Mid of bags of seeds
12. SOUNDBITE (English) Frederik Birket-Smith, visitor:
"Well, I'm sure it will never disappear. So for me, it should be legalized."
13. SOUNDBITE (English) Karen Grue, psychotherapist:
“The negative energy is all these people who want to just make the money, and they do a lot of criminal things and, you know, not being part of Christiania, just using this place for their own profit. And I mean, there's a lot of negative energy and a negative spirit, so that's why I move them out.“

STORYLINE:
The now-aging hippies who took over a derelict naval base in Copenhagen more than 50 years ago and turned it into a freewheeling community known as Christiania want to boot out criminals who control the community's lucrative market for hashish by ripping up the cobblestoned street where it openly changes hands.
