At the beginning of the 2000s, Maud Nycander made a film about the couple Eva and Johan, two young people who fell head over heels in love and had a child within a year of meeting. As Maud now comes back to them, they have been together for 25 years, have three more or less grown-up children and are in the midst of a separation. Through charming flashbacks to the turbulent years with small children, shortly after the turn of the millennium and swooping down in the current relationship in transformation, a unique portrayal of life’s great undertakings – life-long love – arises. But how do you go on with life without your better half? How will the kids react and can a separation be the only way for love to survive?

Coca Strip was shot in a bathtub. The film is a visual representation of the ‘Coca empire’s artificially flavored, canned music. A black and white walk in the subterranean ruin of the Empire builders alone with Felix the cat. Pursued by submissive, radar-controlled dogs, in a shadowy world with no return. Hanging in the umbilical cord of Imperialism, force-fed and preserved on the point of total disintegration before final misery.’ (Olle Hedman, 1991)

Berlin is like an island in the middle of East Germany, a divided city known for its wall, the so-called Berlin Wall. Ever since its inception, this has been extensively exploited by Western propaganda. The notions about it are based in the general public on the fact that it was created to prevent people from traveling as they wish, from escaping. The wall that separates West Berlin from East Berlin is considered a crime against humanity. The truth is that the wall has caused many tragedies, the people on both sides of it are hermetically sealed off from each other. Those who are indignant about the existence of the wall, base their opinion entirely on the propaganda, which in the Cold War game manipulated the background to its creation. The film shows how necessary it was for East Germany to effectively close its border and the consequences of that for West Berlin.

The film To New Horizons draws its inspiration from the relationship between the United States and the Soviet Union in the 1930's, when American engineers, construction managers and designs were used for the planning and building of Stalin’s first Five-Year plan for the industrialisation of the Soviet Union. In the arts and specifically in the culture of cinema there were exchanges and influences between the two powers, revealing a co-dependency of these two cold war enemies.

The main topic of the film is suicidality in context of close relationships. But its focus is not on the suicidality itself. Instead it gives insights into the thoughts and feelings of a close person / partner who never had any suicidal intentions themselves. It therefore provides a very different new perspective on how one can possibly think about suicide and a close relationship to someone who is facing this problem.
