We would really much appreciate if you could watch our completed movie Nightmare and give us your thoughts about the movie!
We got the idea for this movie from the couple of school shootings that occurred here in Finland a few years ago. The happening was devastating and maybe it surprised everyone here in Finland, but the fact is that no one can hide from these sort of tragedies wherever they play out. We think that the most disturbed thing about the school shootings were in fact what happened afterwards, society needed to find a scapegoat, very quick. But who is to blame when the one that pulled the trigger is dead? Or as an important political figure pointed out in the media; These sort of things are unacceptable!
That is like saying it never happened!

Great! Very entertaining. I learned to understand myself better, he-he.
Nightmare | Nightmare won first price @ iikfestivaalit! Today I got the news that Nightmare had won the first price for best shortfilm at iikfestivaalit! I'm very happy because this movie was extremely difficult to do, I think everybody involved were constantly afriad of stepping over some boundaries. So we always re-cut the movie and changed the monologue until we were certain that this will not hurt or piss somebody off big time. And apparently we managed to do so and we also kept a good balance between what can be shown and what should just stay in our twisted minds forever.
I'm still hoping to get Nightmare to other festivals here in Finland but I'm also sending it out to independent horror festivals around the globe.

FINALLY!!! I say FINALLY with big f*ing letters because this project turned out to be a real nightmare, haha!
After many ups and downs we decided to cut down the movie to under 15 minutes so that we could get it into different shortfilm festivals, even if this is only a shortfilm we did kill a lot of darlings in the editing room but hopefully people will someday see the whole movie as it was supposed to be, approximately 25 minutes.
A release-party will take place 2nd October at Club 18 in Karjaa. After that the movie will hopefully enter "iikfestivaalit" here in Finland and perhaps a few festivals later next year.
Nightmare > Short film festivals? > Tampere Film Festival Hello there! Can anyone recommend some good festivals for this type of film? The genre is horror/thriller! Please post your recommendations here! Thank you!
