re-selected Dossier #2
Northern Lights

re-selected Dossier goes into a new round. With Northern Lights, Tobias Hering catapults us back into the 60s. Using films, documents and images, he tells of the relationship between the Short Film Festival and Sweden. The focus is on the rejection of the film Ferrum (1963) and why Peter Nestler played a central role.
