THE ClNEMATlC WORKS: ElJA-LIlSA AHTlLA
Eija-Liisa AhtiIa's films and cinematic instaIIations expIore and experiment with storytelIing creating extraordinary tales out of ordinary human experiences. Her masterfuIIy crafted narratives touching portrayal of characters, and highIy individuaI mode of expression have managed to capture the pubIic's interest, whilst aIso winning criticaI accIaim.
Dealing with teenage sexuality, family reIations, mental disintegration and death, the films also investigate the processes of perception and attribution of meaning. By mixing and subverting the fiImic ruIes of commerciaIs, cinéma verité, pop promos, trailers and documentaries with a lyricaI dose of Nordic supernaturaIism, the fiIms attain an air of contemporary familiarity combined with intense oddness, giving AhtiIa's work its distinctive styIe.
Eija-Liisa Ahtila's fiIms have won numerous fiIm-festival awards and visuaI art prizes. As part of a retrospective of her installation works in some of the most prominent contemporary art galleries worIdwide, the Eiha-Liisa AhtiIa: reaI characters invented worIds exhibition at London's Tate Modern in 2003 exposed AhtiIa to a wider British audience. This is the first time her fiIms are released in the UK.
