Their team captain gets injured in the first game, and the rest of the tournament, Jón and the other boys have to fight harder to become better team players. While this is happening, unexpected drama with one of the boys from another team arises. Jón and his friends need to choose who they’re going to help – their own team, or a boy in desperate need of their rescue.

Siblings Keaton and Gladys are travelling alone on a spaceship to a planet that never appears to get any closer. They are the sole members of what should have been a group voyage from a dying Earth to a world where humanity was planned to begin anew.

Instead, it’s just them. Or at least, it was. The arrival of an alien acts as a wedge between brother and sister, with both unsure of its motives. Their situation isn’t helped by the sensation that there is also an unidentified outside force at work.

However, city life isn’t quite what Hodja expected, and he only survives because of Emerald, a poor but street smart girl, who teaches him how to manage in the big world.

Asgeir is a completely normal teenager who struggles to adapt both at school and at home.

He doesn’t have the coolest friends, he struggles to get the girl he likes, and everything is chaos at home. Everything changes when Asgeir receives a ninja-doll who lives its own life.

Because of his angelic appearance, the press dubs Carlitos “The Angel of Death.” Showered with attention because of his beauty, he becomes an overnight celebrity. Altogether, he is believed to have committed over forty thefts and eleven homicides.

ZAIN: For giving me life.

Varpu is a 12 year old girl whose dysfunctional home life with her lonely single mother starts to weigh on her as she becomes increasingly aware of her peers, and the social pressure that comes with adolescence. In a search for some resemblance of stability, she goes on a long journey from Helsinki to Oulu in order to find her real father, a man whom her mother rarely speaks of. Along the way, Varpu discovers not only a parent, but a new found freedom in knowing who she truly wants to be.

Being different doesn’t necessarily mean being dangerous!

Capernaüm tells the story of Zain, a Lebanese boy who sues his parents for the “crime” of giving him life. The film follows Zain as he journeys from gutsy, streetwise child to a hardened 12-year-old “adult” fleeing his negligent parents, surviving through his wits on the streets, where he meets Ethiopian migrant worker Rahil, who provides him with shelter and food, as Zein takes care of her baby son Yonas in return.

In collaboration with Sørnorsk filmsenter and PLATTFORM, we invite you to a documentary seminar and panel discussion based on three films which portrays different aspects of radicalism.

What happens when you change point of view – from one end of the spectrum to the other.

What happens to the victims of the extreme consequences of radicalism. Is it possible to come back from extreme viewpoints?

EXIT

In the film SOLA SCRIPTURA, Signe Tørå Karsrud focus on her dad who goes from being a left wing orientated priest to join the right wing wave in the religious community. In RECONSTRUCTING UTØYA, the Director, Carl Javér, gets four of the survivors from 22nd of July to relive their experience to get a better understanding. Karen Winter was formerly active in the extreme right wing community before she realised that she needed to escape the radical mindset and community. She portrays this in the film EXIT.

Karen Winther goes on a personal journey, reflecting on her very own extremist past and the stories of the people she meets along her travels, such as a former left-wing extremist and former right-wing extremists who made the leap to leave their movement.

Following, there will be a panel discussion about radicalism. The filmmakers Carl Javiér, Karen Winther and Signe Tørå Karsrud will be in the panel together with Magne Langseth (Agder police district) and Ragnhild Elisabeth Sørbotten Moen (PhD Research Fellow). The conversation will be moderated by Omar Sadiq (Head of Plattform).
