Visitors from a distant place appear in the misty swamps of Northern Finland. As harmless as they are, their foreign presence unwittingly disrupts the peace of local inhabitants. They have come to look for berries, an activity that all of a sudden seems to embody all the values of the local culture. Who is to blame and where do the profits end up? How to Pick Berries is an exploration of the Finnish mind and the absurdities of the global economy.

"Negretina", is an experimental short film about the 1920s and 30s in Europe based on found footage film material. The film is based on original 1920s and 1930s Pathé film material in 9.5mm format. The music for the film, a classical contemporary piece for orchestra and choir, Agua Nocturna, is composed by Lasse Enersen (FIN). The 1920s and 1930s in Europe was an era of strong political changes, economical downturn and the rise of right-wing politics and fascism in Germany. In the focus of the found footage is a small girl called Negretina. Combining different styles of the era, the film depicts impressions from a time in history.




FISDN 2011 : Honoring the (different) Worlds : Pointing Out

 

October 5th to 16th 2011

 
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.
