Easy case
Dir: Ali Al-Saffu
28 min
Language: Finnish
In the span of one night, Momo and his childhood friends Sakke and Yehya are pulled into a dangerous spiral – one that puts both their safety and their friendship on the line.
Easy case is written and directed by Ali Al-Saffu. It was originally commissioned by YLE as a mini-series (PARI IISII DROPPII). The footage has now been made into the director's own short film and it deals with the themes in a more deep and honest way.
Easy case is a story about young men who face difficult decisions in East Helsinki by night. It’s based on the experiences of director Ali Al-Saffu and those close to him.
My Name is Hope
Dir: Sherwan Haji
20 min
Language: Arabic
In a Syrian intelligence service prison, a university student witnesses, through the narrow food hatch of his cell, events that mirror the horrific reality of his nation. Hope is born, as prisoners keep alive the fading light of resistance in a world that has chosen to forget them.
Omenan tuoksu
O: Zagros Manuchar
8 min
Kielet: kurdi (kurmandži)
Suomen- ja englanninkielinen tekstitys
Omenan tuoksu perustuu Halabjassa vuonna 1988 tapahtuneeseen kansanmurhaan, joka on historian suurin siviileihin kohdistunut kaasuhyökkäys. Iskussa kuoli paljon naisia ja lapsia ja se on jättänyt lähtemättömät jäljet kurdiväestöön. Kaasuun oli sekoitettu omenan tuoksua, ettei kukaan epäilisi mitään. Elokuvan keskushenkilö 17-vuotias Amira kärsii vakavista kivuista ja hengitysoireista. Teos piirtää kuvan invalidisoituneesta Amirasta ja sodan ja väkivallan pitkäaikaisista seurauksista.
