Light Year

The heart of the film is the sundrenched kitchen garden. Towards the street in the west are dense lilac bushes; on the northern side a half-timbered house; a raspberry thicket serves as a border to the southern neighbour and a lush honeysuckle grows on the fence to the parkland in the east. In a dazzlingly beautiful sequence of shots and meticulously authentic sound we explore the greatness of the small objects in the director’s own garden in Falsterbo, an old village in the south of Sweden. We see the real world from the perspective of the great tit, the wasp and the cabbage butterfly, and we human beings as one species among many. "There's nothing we're more ignorant about than our immediate surroundings," author says.

The screening is in partnership with Ekofilm, International film festival on environment.
