Simo Saarikoski: Abandoned Land II
19.14 min / 16:9 / Stereo / Dialogue: Finnish / Subtitles: English
Abandoned Land II is an experimental, documentary and poetic video about the lost Finland and at the same time about its future. It documents abandoned environments and forgotten lifestyles that have become the periphery of Finnish society and phenomena from today’s perspective. Finland is a metaphor for the social change throughout Europe from the ending of the Second World War up to the present day. The abandoned world is a window to the future, also reflecting the things we may in the future consider worth abandoning.
