Ritual for the Rainbow

Director & Scriptwriter: Sami Sänpäkkilä
Ritual for the Rainbow is a story about four preteens who live outside of society’s safety nets due to domestic violence. Ariel, Rupi, Liisa, and Hemmo make a living by shooting rats at a junkyard and collecting empty bottles. They lack role models and authority figures until they meet a Wiccan who organises rituals to teach them confidence and how to combat violence and patriarchy — for a fee, of course.

Impivaara – A New World adapts Finnish national author Aleksis Kivi’s novel Seven Brothers (1870) for the 21st Century. The emphasis is on climate crisis, the energetic basis of our culture and the co-dependencies of human and more-than-human worlds.
