المعنى
Asking for the start time.
خلفية ثقافية
Danes value punctuality. If a movie is scheduled for 20:00, the trailers start exactly then. However, the actual movie might start 15-20 minutes later. It is common to buy numbered seats in Denmark. You don't just sit anywhere. Asking 'Hvornår starter filmen?' helps you know if you have time to find your specific seat. Movie nights at home are a peak 'hygge' activity. The question 'Hvornår starter filmen?' is often the signal to light candles and bring out the snacks. Denmark is famous for dark, atmospheric films. When asking about these, the tone is often one of excited anticipation.
The V2 Rule
Always put the verb in the second position in these questions. It's the most common mistake for English speakers.
Trailers are long
If someone says the movie starts at 8, you usually have until 8:15 before the actual plot begins.

Hvor vs Hvornår
Be careful! Asking 'Hvor starter filmen?' might make people think you're asking which city or cinema it's playing in.
