Saana ( Saanan Tahto )
Mervi Junkkonen
2003 - Finlande - Couleur - 44'

Saana is a child of nature, a strongly emotional and deeply poetic person, who draws her vitality and inspiration from the environment. Her dreams of a life in Nature’s bosom are shattered when she falls ill. The limitations of her body go against her way of life and her dreams. As her wishes clash with her body, Saana has to learn to live on the terms of her skin. But the will of her skin does not correspond to Saana’s will. When nature, once her friend, has turned into an enemy of her body, Saana needs to reconsider her life. However, giving up your hopes and principles is never easy.
