Seen it all? Dive to the deep end of the new and bewildering Finnish short form. This matrimony of art and film does not let its viewer off easy.
Awareness of artificial intelligence evolves to a surreal state where communication back to humans is beneath the reach.
The Problem of the Hydra is an experimental documentary film about the practical and metaphysical problems a small fresh-water polyp, known as Hydra, has caused since the 1700s to the present day. Contrary to most animals, Hydra Vulgaris does not age – at all.
Dreams and memories merge together at the moment of disappearance. Recurring visions and gestures are drawn into the void within the portrait of a fading self.
Nintendo game, codeine and online BDSM blend in this minimalistic speculation circling and edging towards a new view of otherness within.
Young Anon discovers the digital, binary root of everything during a school trip to New York and comes to a surprising conclusion.
Tracing back a lost identity, hidden in the forests of an abandoned war zone. How does trauma get carried on from a generation to another and is there a way to stop the cycle?
Tracing back a lost identity, hidden in the forests of an abandoned war zone. How does trauma get carried on from a generation to another and is there a way to stop the cycle? The filmmaker tries to understand how to heal from the pressures of the past by searching for their grandmother’s childhood home. Taking the journey with their parents, they find themselves in a village located in the old Karelia, now a part of Russia.
Master Longclaws tells the story of an itch that needs scratching. In it, a shape- and nameshifting nail artist Misster Longclaus is looking for intimacy in all the wrong places.
The illusion breaks down when the viewer can see the strings.
Shadow Codex is a study on the emergence of symbols in a monitored and closed environment. The black-and-white film of the abandoned facilities of Turku County Prison (1835–2007) documents the layers of messages drawn, scratched and burned on the cell walls. The flow of images is punctuated by John Cage’s (1912–1992) six-part composition “Perilous Night” (1964), which has been called a journey to the nocturnal side of the soul.
Shadow Codex is a study on the emergence of symbols in a monitored and closed environment. The black-and-white film of the abandoned facilities of Turku County Prison (1835–2007) documents the layers of messages drawn, scratched and burned on the cell walls. The markings are pathways to the shadow world, to the darkness of an individual’s psyche, and expose the disturbing underbelly of a society that both generates and hides. The film becomes the codex of a collapsed civilization and, at the same time, evidence of a forbidden zone in the centre of the city. The flow of images is punctuated by John Cage’s (1912–1992) six-part composition “Perilous Night” (1964), which has been called a journey to the nocturnal side of the soul.
The work is composed of two separate films followed by each other. Both films explore transcendental issues through archaeological and illegal excavations of tombs.
