Karlberg lives in a tedious, soulless Danish small town. His wife is dull and annoying. Karlberg has a little girl locked in the cellar of an abandoned estate that he owns. His wife knows it. She thinks it's disgusting. But she doesn't act. He can control her. The girl dances for him. She does as she is told. Karlberg can even bring friends over to party in the kitchen, and only Karlberg knows that the girl is right underneath, and could probably he heard if she screamed. But she won't. Because Karlberg can control her. Sometimes, she does bad things. Karlberg is confused. What shall he do if he gets tired of her? What shall he do if she's no fun anymore?

October 5th - 16th, 2012
We present film series focused on 16 different countries and regions. This section intends to discover and explore different spaces and cultures with the aim to understand the specific regional, political and social circumstances, do reconstruct the emotional and intellectual spécificities of a special region or country. In this critical work we belief it's essencial to prefer films which rufuse, in its form and expression, the retake of sterotype ways of reality restituition, as an act of resistance in the actual period of "globalisation", which inclins to impose one dominating model of culture and habitutes.
