Giant's Kettle (Finland) by Markku Hakala, Mari Käki
Somewhere up north at the age of peak reason there is a man longing for connection but unable to break loose, and a woman feeling alien to the world which has everything figured out for her, without her.
They make their best to fit in and fulfill their roles. But something important is missing, as if the whole world was drained of love. During the family trip back to the past the surreal takes over and everything starts to break apart.
Giant’s Kettle is a love story without love, a cinematic journey into the unconscious, an epic tragicomedy of the mundane, and a mystery in a world emptied of mystery.
Running time: 01:11:00
