ELOa Espoossa – Tuoretta opiskelijaelokuvaa

In these undoubtedly fresh student films, we explore corporeality, weave the history of bodily sensations into the history of moving images, sing and recite poetry about love that separates and separation that loves, confront Cartesian dualism and surprises in the bath, hear a fish cabaret that is both delightful and painfully relatable, and reflect on the questions of parenthood. Come, watch, ponder, and be delighted!
