Screenings:
Espoo Ciné’s Crip Ciné programme features documentaries and fiction films depicting the lives of disabled people, as well as works by disabled filmmakers that challenge stereotypes surrounding disability. The themed programme, which has been part of Espoo Ciné for five years, now continues with free pop-up screenings on the Crip Ciné kylässä tour, which this year also includes, for the first time, Crip Ciné kylässä Junior, aimed at children. To celebrate the festival, we are visiting KAMU, the City Museum of Espoo, at WeeGee House, where all four Crip Ciné programmes will be screened. The screenings are part of KAMU’s Free Friday programme.
The screening explores conflicts and disagreements, both small and large, domestic and cosmic. How can we live together and find the conditions for a meaningful and sustainable life?
The following films will be shown at the screening:
Ashling Ocampo Colvin: La Casa de la Abuela (At Grandma’s) (Spain 2024, 14 min)
Mer is an 18-year-old young woman with Down syndrome. She dreams of getting her driving licence and gaining her freedom. A warm-hearted film about Mer and her family. In Spanish, with Finnish subtitles.
Satu Tani & Maima Tani: Maatuminen (Decomposition) (Finland 2025, 8 min)
A strange god-like creature tirelessly rolls a huge ball of manure across a field. In a café, a human enjoys their position as the “crown of creation”. Things get a little out of hand. Elsewhere, in a neuro-odd future, the Microplastic Clothes Moth and the Moth reshape their environment through different processes. The film contains no dialogue.
Jenny Jokela: Dollhouse Elephant (Finland 2025, 12 min)
In a world that demands community, the desires of individuals eventually collide. Neighbours must learn to communicate and take each other into consideration, even though each has their own personal goal. When small, everyday actions have unexpected consequences, everyone is forced to challenge their independence.
