Shades of light, dark, and significantly grey, are explored in Orbit, which depicts notions of adultery. In this project, which blends elements of concrete and abstract, women of various ages give insights into their thoughts and feelings on their affairs.

Digging up the memory of the Finnish Civil War in 1918, Grey Wolf tells a historical story with a modern twist. When Viktor Stark, a peaceful writer of the conservative Whites, finds a wounded enemy soldier hiding for his life, Stark’s values and loyalty are measured against each other. Will he choose a higher moral or otherness? The answer is revealed in the final scene that turns the whole world around. Grey Wolf is set in history, but truly, it tells about us.
