Boogieman - På turné med Owe Thörnqvist

Boogieman - På turné med Owe Thörnqvist

Sweden's first rock'n roll performer Owe Thörnqvist is on tour. There is still power and joy in the music and there is a slight gnola in the lyrics. Folk home rock and vadmals blues for full houses and standing ovations, and it makes Berit and Börje's hearts a little tight because they remember how it was once there in the late 50s.

Leva Livet

Leva Livet

Ten years after documentary filmmaker Tom Alandh started filming homeless drug addict Pia Sjögren, he makes his third and final film about her. Pia was 14 years old when she started smoking cannabis and using drugs. Then it all happened really fast. The heavier drugs, the men who beat, and years of cold nights in basements and attics. Treatment and punishment. Rehabs and prisons. Relapse. Constantly back, at the complete bottom, among shame and guilt. For ten years, Tom Alandh and photographer Björn Henriksson documented Pia's life. Two films were made, this is the third and last film, which shows how she managed to get clean against all odds.

AMERICAN REFLEXXX

AMERICAN REFLEXXX is a short film documenting a social experiment that took place in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Alli Coates filmed performance artist Signe Pierce as she strutted down a busy oceanside street in stripper garb and a reflective mask. The pair agreed not to communicate until the experiment was completed, but never anticipated the horror that would unfold in under an hour. The result is a heart wrenching technicolor spectacle that raises questions about gender stereotypes, mob mentality, and violence in America.
