I Was Born

2024 / Elina Oikari / 14 min 32 sec

A man borns on the river. He travels in contrasting landscapes and seasons. The protagonist yearns for nature's peace, but is continuously surrounded by the artificial while a mysterious figure seems to follow him on his journey.

By merging existential gaze into surreal landscapes, I Was Born examines the paradoxical relationship between human and the nature.


Ritual for the rainbow

2023 / Sami Sänpäkkilä / 18 min 35 sec

"Ritual for the Rainbow" is a story about four preteens who live outside of society's safety nets due to domestic violence. Ariel, Rupi, Liisa, and Hemmo make a living by shooting rats at a junkyard and collecting empty bottles. They lack role models and authority figures until they meet a Wiccan who organises rituals to teach them confidence and how to combat violence and patriarchy — for a fee, of course.
