Buzzing with cinema day and night, the festival brings famed filmmaker guests to Sodankyl\u00e4 from all around the world as well as Finland.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Midnight Sun Film Festival opens in the morning of Wednesday June 12 at 11 am, when the iconic Cinema Lapinsuu presents the Finnish premiere of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Close Your Eyes<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (2023), the latest picture by <\/span><b>Victor Erice<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> who visited the festival in 1995. The film explores themes of time and memory through the use of three different temporal levels as the story centres a movie that remains unfinished as its lead actor disappears mysteriously during the shoot. The official opening screening in Cinema Lapinsuu at 19:30 showcases <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Lovers on the Bridge<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (1991) by the visionary filmmaker guest <\/span><b>Leos Carax<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. From Carax\u2019s restless camerawork emerges a unique, brutal and striking poetic creation starring Denis Lavant and Juliette Binoche. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From Wednesday onwards, Sodankyl\u00e4 welcomes a number of international directors. As a<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bold reformer of Italian cinema, <\/span><b>Michelangelo Frammartino <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">presents the Midnight Sun audience with his international breakthrough <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Four Times <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(2010). The modern masterpiece depicts a soul\u2019s journey between the body and different states in a poetic and irresistibly cinematic way. German-Turkish director <\/span><b>Asl\u0131 \u00d6zge <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">visits the screening of her dark psychological thriller <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All of a Sudden<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (2016). The small-town story of the social decline of a son from a good family shows how fluidly honesty and loyalty can be defined. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With his strong personal filmmaker\u2019s voice, Kazakh director <\/span><b>Adilkhan Jer\u017eanov <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">presents the audience with his wild tragicomedy <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Owners <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(2014) on Thursday. Influences of the film can be traced back to names such as Aki Kaurism\u00e4ki, Franz Kafka and Vincent van Gogh. In the same evening the winner of multiple Academy Awards <\/span><b>Alfonso Cuar\u00f3n <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">takes over Cinema Lapinsuu with his major international breakthrough <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Y tu mam\u00e1 tambi\u00e9n<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (2001).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Present on Thursday evening is also <\/span><b>Alice Rohrwacher<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from the top of modern Italian cinema with <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">La Chimera<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (2023). The cinematically playful story about grave robbers is set in Tuscany in the 80s and had its cinema release in Finland in the spring. Additionally, Rohrwacher\u2019s short film <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">De Djess<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (2015) has been added to the programme. The short set in the fashion world viewed through a surrealist lens was the first collaboration between Rohrwacher and the Finnish musical group Cleaning Women, whom the director met on her first visit to Midnight Sun Film Festival in 2014. Friday the group of guests expands with the arrival of Norwegian <\/span><b>Dag Johan Haugerud <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">whose films in the programme include <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sex <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(2024).
