“Art Rich”, a full day of inspiration on how to work with film and other creative fields and further the possibility to offer creative options for all pupils in our schools. A screening of ‘Blood Sisters’ will start off the day and Malin will be present for a Q&A-session afterwards, together with Carolina Falk from Film i Skåne.
November 2017: ‘Blood Sisters’ is used during a history lesson at Universitetsholmens gymnasium (Univeritetsholmens High School) in Malmö, the focus being on Womens history, beginning with the implementation of women’s right to vote in 1921 and ending in 2017 with #metoo – and “Blood Sisters” is used during the full two hours of teaching, putting the light on a diversity of issues, not least the importance of sharing stories, not staying silent.

The Belfast Girls Mairéad Mc Ilkenny and Christine Savage live in the same city but at the same time worlds apart.
I their homecity Belfast, the so called ’peacewalls’ that seperate people, stand high and tall and efficiently seperate and divide the citys’ people, young and old, and are instrumental in maintaining polarisation.
Malin followed the teenage girls at a time in their lives when love made them both challenge the satus quo and be brave enough to cross the division and challenge the walls.
The 60 min documentary film from 2006 is Malin Andersson’s debutfilm and was nominated for many awards, among others Prix Europa, Best Nordic Documentary and Tempo Documentary Award.
Cinematography by Kate Mc Cullough, and sound by Guillaume Beauron
“Paul is a young gay man from West Belfast who spends his weekends working in the pubs and clubs of Belfast’s city centre as a drag queen. Paul’s father John is a dyed in the wool, old style republican who is struggling to come to terms with the new times and having a gay son not to mention having a son who is a drag queen. This documentary in Gaelic highlights the conflict and compromises between a father and son whilst both undertake their own personal journeys to find a deeper understanding of themselves and each other.”
