(Karhupumppu)

Finland, 2019. 4 minutes.
A portrayal of old persons last moments and the value of microfungi, bacteria and other small entities living with us. Human world meets nonhuman in this psychedelic short film which mixes different animation techniques.
Niina Suominen:
What Time Is?
(Mikä aika on?)
Finland, 2020. 7 minutes.
What time is? places the experience of time in the centre of contemplation. The human figures act as reference points for meditation on the passage and ending of time. The images of war function as universal symbols reflecting the inherent violence in human nature through all eras. The work gives us a chance to reflect on the transient nature of time and the relationship of the viewer to the conflict-ridden epoch in which we live.
