The morning proceeded with discussions regarding the meaningfulness and possibilities of film education in the Film Education Matinee. <\/span><b>Ari Lehtola<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> opened the matinee, acknowledging the long history the festival has in relation to film education: \u201cThe Midnight Sun Film Festival has been an active educator of film and cinema from the mid 1990\u2019s\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The matinee was led with the expertise of the film education specialist <\/span><b>Kaisa Kukkola<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, who grounded the need for films in schools and other areas of education: \u201cEach thing we give time and space to, begins to create meanings within us\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the noon, <\/span><b>Pirjo Honkasalo\u2019s <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">latest drama <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Orenda <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">kicked off the long awaited series of festival screenings. The film, also starring the screenwriter, <\/span><b>Pirkko Saisio<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, seizes the audience to think of questions of guilt and belief in the breathtaking scenery of the Finnish archipelago.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Big Tent\u2019s first film was the free screening of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kekkonen ja Kemijoki, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">directed by <\/span><b>Antti Sepp\u00e4nen<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>Tommi H\u00e4kkinen<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Within the brief before the screening, <\/span><b>Ari Lehtola<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>Timo Malmi<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> explained the meaning of that particular film to people living along the river.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The brand new Red Tent opened up to audiences with <\/span><b>Jon\u00e1s Trueba\u2019s<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> latest, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Other Way Around. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The film examined the end of a long-term relationship, and the contradicting emotions arisen by it from multiple frames of reference. The film starred <\/span><b>Itsaso Arana<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>Vito Sanz<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, who also took part in the screenwriting.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the Club Tent, children got to try out accompanying a silent film with different objects, instruments, as well as their own hands and body. The film of choice for the workshop, part of the Film Education Matinee, was <\/span><b>George M\u00e9li\u00e8s\u2019 <\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Trip to the Moon<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Le Voyage dans la Lune)<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Later on in the Club Tent, the open discussion <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Film Clubs Memory and Finland<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> brought together the representatives of the culture services targeted for the elderly and immigrants. Based on the shared discourse, participants got to plan and draft the concept of a film club in small groups.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The official opening screening of the Film Festival was <\/span><b>Vittoria De Sica\u2019s <\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Garden of the Finzi-Continis <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(1970), which, with respect to the tradition, was screened in the Cinema Lapinsuu. Before De Sica\u2019s film, the audience was entertained and amused with <\/span><b>Heikki Ortamo\u2019s<\/b> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Midnight Sun Film Festival<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (1987).

According to Sanda, the profession of acting offers an opportunity to break the chains of nervousness and tension. The British special guests,<\/span><b> Julien Temple<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>Chris Petit<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> were also present in the opening screening.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lapinsuu offered <\/span><b>Margarethe Trotta\u2019s<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> alarmingly timely political drama <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Marianne and Juliane<\/span><\/i> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">as the late night screening. After the screening, the sold out film left its audience under the overwhelming mass of dark blue clouds, with plenty of food for thought. In the meantime, the first ever Me\u00e4nkieli film, <\/span><b>Jon Bl\u00e5hed\u2019s<\/b> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Raptures,<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> grasped the 1930\u2019s atmosphere in Torne Valley (Tornionlaakso). In turn, at Kitisenranta school\u2019s cinema the audience was left laughing and amazed, repeatedly, by <\/span><b>Alain Guiraudie\u2019s<\/b> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Misericordia<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The sun, which had stayed hidden behind the thick cloud curtains, arrived just in time to display the flaming red show after the end of the late evening screenings.
