Puutarha 2021
Welcome to the garden. The late summer sun has ripened the fruits in the apple trees. The landscape is reminiscent of Eden. The summery apple orchard creates the background for the BDSM sessions of the five main characters and their meditations on the meaning of being kinky. Trust, play, and joy are at the centre of the documentary. A playmate can transform from a tea party table to a ride in an instant. New uses are found for the shovel, familiar from the sandbox. The viewer gets close to something truly intimate. You can almost feel the touch on your skin. The camera’s gaze is gentle and observant. The red latex shines in the light of the setting sun.
