Quizzen handlede om teksten ”ADAM SIEN APPELN”. På hvilket sprog er teksten skrevet?

The quiz was about the text “”ADAM SIEN APPELN”. In which language is the text?

Bei dem Quiz geht es um den Text “” ADAM SIEN APPELN “. In welcher Sprache ist der Text geschrieben?

Bonus questions, for an extra prize: where was the picture taken? Which Danish film is connected with the text?

Bonusfragen für einen zusätzlichen Preis: Wo wurde das Bild aufgenommen? Welcher dänische Film hängt mit dem Text zusammen?

Bonus spørgsmål, til en ekstra pris: hvor blev billedet taget? Hvilken dansk film er forbundet med teksten?

We received a number of correct answers, and after a lottery, the winner is Jakob Steensig, who wrote ( Vi fik en række rigtige svar, og efter et lotteri fandt vi vinderen Jakob Steensig, der skrev):

I think that this is Low German/Plattdeutsch/plattysk, from Nothern Germany. In this language, like in some dialects of Norwegian and, presumably Jutlandic too, the genitive can be formed by placing a possessive pronoun between the possessor and the possessed, ‘Adam his apples’. The Danish film is Adams Æbler (‘Adam’s Apples’). I believe the picture is taken in Hamburg because a theatre there made a performance based on the Danish film.

So he has both the bonus question and the language correct.  Here is the poster for the theatre play. Two books for you, Jakob!
