- A psychological drama taking place during a day and a night in the life of a young family living in a beautiful house by the sea in the village of Sandur in the Faroe Islands. At a first glance it seems like an ordinary, happy family - mum and dad and their 11-year-old daughter - but soon we realize that something dark and sinister lies lurking behind the facade waiting to explode.
- This is the film version of Lejlighedsminder (Memories From an Apartment). Originally the work is a film installation: a cross-over work that merges narrative film, video art and theatre monologues into a new way to show film and communicate with the audience. The work consists of five short films, 6-8 min. each, screened simultaneously in five separate rooms in an apartment set. In each film a young woman's everyday doings are interrupted by an intruding unpleasant memory that takes over her mind, and she is forced to relive the bad memory. The films run in loops and while watching one of the films you can hear the sound from the others too. This creates a cacophonous and claustrophobic sense of being at the mercy of your unwanted memories. The installation is a no-budget production created by Faroese film maker Katrin Ottarsdóttir, and her daughter, actress Hildigunn Eyðfinsdóttir. Hildigunn wrote the monologues and did the acting, and Katrin did the filming and the editing.
- "Ein regla um dagin má vera nokk!" (aka A Line A Day Must Be Enough!) is a portrait of the Faroese poet, painter and performance artist Tóroddur Poulsen (born 1957). He has been a remarkable and important unique voice in Faroese literature, art and music for the last 25 years. Referred to as the "black punk poet" of the Faroes, it is precisely his anarchistic, experimental and subtle approach to poetry as well as life, which characterizes his artistic work. This is a way into the peculiar universe of Tóroddur, and the otherwise not very talkative artist gives us a glimpse of his thoughts on art, God, life and death.
