Introducing

Enjoy the big screen experience of ‘Nest’, Palmason’s multi-awarded short on the cycle of life seen through the construction of a tree house (Berlinale, San Sebastian, Odense, Vila do Conde), along with our selection of unique Nordic short films questioning our relationship to nature.

Nest

Hlynur Pálmason, Islande, 22′, VO IS st EN

Siblings build a tree house together over the course of a year. We experience the beauty and brutality of the seasons, as we follow them through their struggles and moments of joy. A moment of bliss, to feel like children again.

Not until now (Först Här)

Clara Bodén, Sweden, 6’30, VO SE st EN

For modern humanity, forests have become an experience that we enjoy or consume. The more we distance ourselves from nature, the more abstract and unaware our relationship becomes. How does this affect our perception of forests? “Not Until Now” is a poetic cinematic essay about the life conditions, economic value and trees in the landscape around us. It is about becoming aware, about being faced with a reality that demands more and asks further questions.

Fence (Hegn)

Hilke Rönnfeldt, Denmark, 12′, VO DK st EN

A fence is built between Denmark and Germany to separate wild boars from domestic farm pigs, to avoid the spreading of a deadly swine virus. Ebba wakes, just an arm length away from her girlfriend Jona, the reminiscence of her dream about separation and a longing for unity takes its toll on them.

Finito

Patrick Eklund, 22′, Sweden, VO SE/EN st EN

The year is 2121 and in a small city in northern Sweden there’s a celebration of the local engineer Eugene Lestander whose inventions managed to reverse the effects of climate change. In the midst of the celebration, news breaks about a new doomsday threat.Can humanity make it this time?
