The Ex-Wife
First Assistant Director
The girlfriend Klara has recently fallen in love and wants nothing more than to hang out with her boyfriend. The mother-of-two Anna clocks how long it takes for her husband to cook baby formula. The ex-wife Vera can't let go of her ex-husband. The feature-film debuting Katja Wik presents a squib right on the money about women's tendency to, both consciously and unconsciously, limit themselves in their close relationships of two. Each frame conveys the film's theme of power manipulation and Katja Wik's neologism "victim-mentality rhetoric" (offerrollsretorik) is used by all parties as an effective weapon. Without stagnating in bitterness, The Ex-wife serves as a funhouse mirror reflecting this disturbing trait, which most of us can recognize, but which few dare to acknowledge

Status Quo
Writer
The Midnight Sun blurs the line between night and day. For part of the year, living close to the Arctic Circle means having more hours of the day to spend bonding with others. Though this, in combination with a lack of things to do, breeds creativity in some folks, others might arguably have too much time on their hands. The concept of status quo, i.e. nothing has changed, has seldom been more suitable.
