A Finnish human rights defender Jyri Jaakkola was killed in 2010 by
paramilitary troops in Oaxaca in Southwestern Mexico. Mr. Jaakkola’s
mother Eve Jaakkola has since then been trying to seek justice. In
seeking justice for her family and herself Ms. Jaakkola is confronting
the whole political system of Mexico. Thus, the documentary film
evolves from a story of an individual’s fight for justice into a more
general narrative about a struggle against a culture of impunity which
prevails in Mexico.

A haunting, disturbing gaze into the mind of a sociopath, against the
backdrop of the European immigration crisis As a human being, aka “The
Horn” - a former Colombian guerrilla commander - leaves much to be
desired. Based on the principles laid out in Sergey Nechayev´s
infamous Revolutionary Catechism, he cheated, extorted and murdered,
up until reaching absolute self-fulfillment in the Far North of
Sweden. A haunting, disturbing gaze into the mind of a sociopath,
against the backdrop of the European immigration crisis

March 2 - 11, 2018
An international jury overview the sections of short films coming from all over the world. We prefer documentaries which succeed in representing the complexity of reality and discover in a new way its sensible and perturbing aspects on the same time accentuating the ambivalent and enigmatic status of reality in avoiding sterotypes and simplifing conclusions.
