Through a patchwork of northern norwegian shorts, Time Capsule gives you a look back of what happened when Norway went into its first lockdown.
When the covid-19 pandemic hit us, northern norwegian filmmakers lost most of their work and income. In april 2020 the North Norwegian Filmcentre and Filmfund North initiated the Time Capsule project. All regional filmmakers were invited to make a short film depicting the situation and how it affected their lives. It resulted in 155 individual films.
This patchwork of a film is a selection of 47 of the submissions that will take us back to those early months of 2020, and with seriousness and wit, it shows us what happend.
Fredrik Mortensen (b. 1983) is a Norwegian director from Tromsø. He has studied art direction av Westerdals School of Communication and film production av Stockholms Filmskola. His first film, Parked, was screened at TIFF in 2018, followed in 2019 by his short A Stranger Comes Home. In this film he is one of many directors, since "Time Capsule" is made from 47 individual films.
