Mad in Finland - The film
A documentary film by Elice Abonce Muhonen / 2021 / 65 min / Color / 1 :2.39 / Stereo/ Subtitles : English, French, Spanish, Finnish
We are seven. Women. Finnish.
We are circus artists, we yell uproariously.
Seven ways to do this job and one collective creation to meet once in a while and practice it together.
In a sauna, on skis, running, or on a boat, we ask ourselves: « why do we do this? » After having toured the world and the question, we decided to make a movie.
To make cinema like we make a circus show.
