After You My mother is spending all her time with her dying father. I’m spending all my time filming her. To understand her, I say. But how much can I actually grasp? And what exactly am I trying to understand? As the uncomprehensible is getting closer, my mother and I do the filming more and more together. It becomes our way of dealing with the time we have left.

“Before I started to work as a filmmaker, I worked as a still photographer for many years. Stills and films are intertwined. They both have the capacity to tell stories that are difficult to express in words. Pictures talks in silence, and for me there are lots of similarities between hanging a photo exhibition and editing a film.” Tora Mårtens

Dare Remember 25 years have elapsed and there’s so little I remember. I don’t remember the police interview, neither do I remember the trial, nor have I ever talked to my parents about the rape; yet it is always present regardless. Dare Remember is a documentary about putting into words what has been kept silent, on being confronted with what you most of all would rather forget. A film about moving forward in life.

An intimate and untraditional love story between Lars Lerin, one of the most Sundance well-regarded Scandinavian painters, and a young Brazilian dancer who meet on the Internet. Two men with a tangled past for whom the cliché about “love moving mountains” takes on absolute validity. We closely follow their struggle for a life where someone loves you – regardless of how vastly difficult it can be to love oneself.

“This is the story of the desperate search for love and whether you can decide to fall in love. Lars writes in his diary: ‘The past is choking me, the here and now is torture and I do not even dare to think about the future. Cyberspace is cold and empty, many tainted hopes, thousands of burnt souls are aimlessly wandering around, helpless and in eternal despair. Love thirsty lovers beaten with manipulation.’” Sara Broos

“In my youth, I hitchhiked from Sweden to Kenya, and fell in love with the country and its people. I was kindly offered a teaching job and settled down in the countryside close by Lake Victoria. The four years I spent there widened my horizons enormously, enriching my life permanently. But, among my immediate neighbours, I was also for the first time confronted with the outrageous inequalities that plague the globe. And ever since, I’ve been thinking about the age-old questions on how to eradicate extreme poverty.” Bosse Lindquist

“Inside any women’s prison in Afghanistan one only comes across reckless women no matter what crime they’re accused of. The women we meet here are lawless. Within the Western purview, they are not criminals. Instead those who should be protected and praised. However, they don’t regret or feel ashamed for the “crimes” they’re locked up for. They’re fighting, with their lives under threat, to have their rights acclaimed and their voices heard by society. They’re fighting for all the women in the world, who throughout history have been degraded and humiliated by the male patriarchy.” Nima Sarvestani

“The film takes you inside the world of Joe and Peggy Sarno by combining observational filmmaking with interviews, private stills and clips from Joe’s films.

But ultimately the heart of the film is Joe and Peggy’s relationship – the love story.” Wiktor Ericsson

She Male Snails is a magic, unique and sensitive hybrid film on the different Sundance aspects of a changing androgynous body. There are more aspects to a person than the eye can see. We spend our whole life trying to find a balance between sexual identities and a body that changes from childhood, to puberty, through adulthood. This is a film about the struggle finding that balance and maybe peace. A story about survival where harsh reality get mixed up in a fictive world.

I wanted to make a visually beautiful film – a mix of national-romanticism, porn and commercials, where the birches give associations to shampoo ads while fetishizing Swedish national symbols. I like dichotomies, where stunning nature is juxtaposed with garbage and things falling apart, and we filmed most of the scenes in the suburbs south of Stockholm where I used to live. This film has been a struggle to make. But now that I’m starting to show it to people, I feel relieved. It’s been worth making such an honest an deeply personal work, especially since Swedish film directors only usually look at things from the outside. Ester Martin Bergsmark

“I have been listening to my granny telling stories of her life, since I was a child. At one point I started to visualize some of them in my head and as the time passed, I also realized that she is one of the few of her generation that are still alive, a generation that witnessed the political events of modern Bulgaria. She was very much a storyteller and I wanted to document her testimony.” Youlian Tabakov
The Weather War DOK Leipzig
CPH:DOX
IDFA
The Weather War is a documentary about man’ s attempts to control the weather and harness it for his own Sundance purposes. In a blend of land art performance and road movie, artist duo Bigert & Bergström travel to the US tornado belt with their special machine-sculpture, the Tornado Diverter. The goal: to stop a tornado. Along the way, we see historical examples of how the science of meteorology developed in symbiosis with military goals and how these visions evolved into modern ideas of geo-engineering. In a larger perspective, the film features the problems faced worldwide due to global climate change. How do we behave to meet those challenges? Do we adapt? Or do we wage war against increasingly aggressive weather that threatens to destroy us?
Bigert & Bergström is an artist duo living and working in Stockholm, Sweden. B&B started to collaborate in 1990, and have since then produced and created a broad range of art and film projects. Often with a c onceptual edge, the core of their work is placed right in the junction between humanity, nature and technology.

“A call to arms and prelude to coming visionary geoengineering performances, our film, The Weather War tracks the history and contemporary struggle, between man and man-made climate, as we approach the tipping point.” Bigert & Bergström
