Two short films from the northern reaches of the globe
Fram
Why do we do incredibly difficult things with no practical application? Is there a parallel between geographic and artistic exploration?
Two friends journey to the end of the earth, in order to dance in the polar wilderness of Svalbard. En route, they explore the history of our ideas of the Arctic, along with the grand questions of life, art and our place in the world. Sharing their love of discovering new frontiers, choreographer-dancer-filmmakers and outdoor enthusiasts Thomas Freundlich and Valtteri Raekallio take the viewer on an engaging journey to a place where few have been and even fewer have danced.
Directors: Thomas Freundlich, Valtteri RaekallioChoreographers: Thomas Freundlich, Valtteri RaekallioCountry: Finland2019Runtime: 50:40 minutes
Clémentine
A scream from beyond the viscera between mineral, beast and man, an unusual encounter with matter, our shadows and light merging into one, crossing through sequins and mud leading to a pure and natural state where our memories are wrecked in order to free the soul.
Directors: Chantal CaronChoreographer: Chantal CaronCountry: Canada2019Runtime: 7:42 minutes
