You might have noticed recently that we have posted titles of four upcoming films with a “vegetable theme”. What are these movies? Are they coming out? And why vegetables?

In our collective, we have a couple of people who want to direct or has directed before. Some of us are Axel Brännmark, Hagob Manoukian, Rasmus Nordin and André & Vito Gogola. Last week, we all had some time off in our schedules and decided to challenge ourselves. What if we used this week to make really short short films about something that’s hard to make exciting? We decided that every director had to make their own three-or-so minute long short film about the captivating theme of…

…vegetables.

It’s not easy, but we don’t want it to be easy. This project as a concept is called 4 tolkningar (“4 Renditions”). Maybe we’ll do something similar in the future. These shorts will be released on our Vimeo shortly:

  • Ode to Green directed by Hagob Manoukian
  • Aubergine directed by André & Vito Gogola
  • Grönsakspausen directed by Axel Brännmark
  • Spill the Beans directed by Rasmus Nordin

More info about these film projects will accompany their releases.
