This project was a monolog interpreted by Misa Lommi. In her mid twenties she was supposed to portray a woman of 80 years. We realized that within our bodies, whatever the age, there is another mental body that follows no rules but rather leads an emotional age that constantly changes depending on the change in mood.

The screenplay won the competition for a dance film production 2016. Often dance in films jump out as a separate section but I wanted to challenge the old narrative- choreography dichotomy and was inspired by the contemporary dance icons like Pina Bausch. The film has since its release in end of March 2017 been invited to both narrative orientated and dance orientated film festivals and won several first prizes. I was also invited as an object of research to the International Meeting on Video- dance at Universidad Polytechnic de Valencia.

Drakar is not a story about remembering trauma—it’s about surviving it through transformation. Irina’s dragons are not metaphors; they are survival tactics, visual weapons, emotional mutations. As a filmmaker, I am drawn to characters who rebuild their worlds from the debris of silence. This is a story about a woman who refuses to be defined by what was done to her—but instead by what she creates.
