We The Others

Having escaped a destructive relationship, film artist Maja Borg explores two ritual practices: Christianity and BDSM. At first glance, the two could hardly be further apart, but perhaps there is a spiritual kinship between religion and subculture in terms of their healing power. Borg confronts herself and her deeply personal traumas in a dark and theatrical form, while exploring the European queer scene and the Christian heritage of northern Europe to find back to her own core. Passion and suffering are two sides of the same complex case in ‘Passion’, whose transcendental imagers lets literary and cinematic traditions come together in a ceremonial whole. But the abstractions give a sense of human depth to the film’s encounters, where Borg is challenged in both body and soul. And maybe it is precisely this humanity that proves to be the thing that connects theology and BDSM on an emotional and possibly even spiritual level.

When Carl realizes he has become invisible, a struggle begins over time and space. With the help of Stella, the only one who can see him, he must solve the mystery of how he became invisible and how to become visible again. Lund becomes the arena for strangeness, love and bells.

A queer film in a world where normative relationships set the rules for who can become a parent and in what way. About the bodies that normalise us to gender when we want to reproduce. About the desire to gift that opportunity to someone else and the common desire and attempt to become pregnant together.

Soon after her ‘big break’, Italian actress Nadya Cazan disappeared. Ottica Zero follows Nadya from her rejection of the monetary-based system to find an alternative way of living.
