Mad in Finland documentary

What happens when a Finnish circus artist decides to make a film with her six Finnish colleagues? The result is a film that is not merely a recording of a show, but a tribute to collaboration, creative energy, Finnish roots and womanhood.

”We are seven. Women. Finnish. We are circus artists, we yell uproariously. Seven ways to do this job and one collective creation to meet once in a while and practice it together. In a sauna, on skis, running, or on a boat, we ask ourselves: « why do we do this? » After having toured the world and the question, we decided to make a movie. To make cinema like we make a circus show.”

A French production. The director’s first feature-length documentary.
