Siltberg\u2019s film writer uses his right hand, his left hand and both feet. The white text is incomprehensible but more and more resembles his wings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Richard Dinter \u2013 Vitt<\/strong> 2010 6 min<br \/>\nA sudden change in a room and the consequences that this has. Vitt (White) is a film about colour and change. It\u2019s about buying new white furniture for the family\u2019s sitting room and about white-hot feelings \u2013an unruly and not always flattering testimony.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Joanna Lombard \u2013 Details from the Future<\/strong> 2007 4 min<br \/>\nJoanna Lombard\u2019s mother and her sister were young when they first worked as extras in the film Z, by Costa-Gavras (1969). Then their lives have moved on. The women didn\u2019t know back then, how life would turn out, but now Lombard knows what happened. Her belated fortune telling moulds itself into a testimony about things that still haven\u2019t happened. The stories create an interesting cat and mouse game with the coming into being of the ego as a central focus.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Magdalena Dziurlikowska, Niklas Ryd\u00e9n<\/strong> <strong>\u2013 Self Torture<\/strong> 2009 7 min<br \/>\nI was brought up in catholic faith. The first time I went to confession I didn\u2019t have anything to confess, so I lied. This is a story about the self-destructiveness that is present in many of us. A narrative about a divided self, someone who exposes herself, drives herself hard, and at the same time someone who is being exposed and tormented.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aurora Reinhart \u2013 Julio &amp; Lupita<\/strong> 2004 4 min<br \/>\nJulio dances gently with Lupita but harshly bends her hand back. How can she put up with it? Should he be allowed to do it? It\u2019s nothing to gossip about. In Latin America there\u2019s a tradition that an abandoned husband makes a doll representing his wife and dances a last dance with his creation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bjargey \u00d3lafsd\u00f3ttir \u2013 Jean<\/strong>1998 2 min<br \/>\nJean is a voice with a French accent who tells how he met his dream woman. She was beautiful and happy, but after some time together, she was still just as happy&#8230; In \u00d3lafsd\u00f3ttir\u2019s film someone tells about an incident that no one knows about, not even Jean.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Markus \u00d6hrn \u2013 utdrag ur Magic Bullet (excerpt from Magic Bullet)<\/strong> 2008 3 min<br \/>\nWhen the film censor cuts a film clip she even cuts out the people in the film that are reacting to what happened. All these people with their wide-eyed looks have gone from the illusion of film to the truth of the archive and give evidence on our relation to what should be kept secret.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Anne\u00e9 Olofsson \u2013 Evil Eye<\/strong> 2005 10 min<br \/>\nHow many times can one die? A woman is lying on a bed, eyes closed and another pair painted on her eyelids. A voice tells how she died. She was beaten to death, stabbed, shot raped, it never ends. It\u2019s a story about many of murders but carried by one woman\u2019s body.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jonas Odell \u2013 Lies (1 of 3) <\/strong>2008 4 min<br \/>\nHow do you get into a locked and heavily guarded company, completely fool the guards, work two days in a row and remove goods worth thousands of crowns. Part of the answer is amphetamines, and the ability to cheat. But now everything is over, and it begins with a confession.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fia-Stina Sandlund \u2013 Act 1 An Idealistic Attempt<\/strong> 2007 12 min<br \/>\nTwo old friends meet, one makes nothing but mistakes, &#8211; how can she do right if you compare her with her friend the idealistic terrorist? They begin to plan a campaign against the M\u00e6rsk McKinney M\u00f8ller and Fia-Stina Sandlund asks herself how far she is willing to go in pursuit of her ideals.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Curatorer: Magdalena Dziurlikowska och Richard Dinter.<br \/>\n4th \u2013 26th September 2010<br \/>\nTensta Konsthall presents the video screening program Testimony curated by Magdalena Dziurlikowska and Richard Dinter.
