Ester Viktorina (2025) Malin O Bondeson
In this work, I want to show some excerpts from my grandmother's patriarchal resistance. The narrative and the photographs will be at the center. They will clarify Esters Lindberg's attempt to negotiate and renegotiate her position within the usual norm. The narratives and photographs will hopefully give an expanded understanding of what it could be like to live as a woman with a desire for freedom in Sweden during the early 20th century.

Culture and Identity Matters in the Films of Tomris Giritlioğlu (2025) Tolga Theo Yalur
Turkish Female director Tomris Giritlioğlu was one of the first in Turkish cinema to touch upon the long-forgotten and pathological consequences of the Turkification efforts in Turkey since forever. In Salkım Hanımın Taneleri / Mrs. Salkım's Diamonds, she (re)creates the recent and pessimistic past of the one-party Turkey of 1943 Wealth Tax, trying to overthrow the official discourse of the chaotic institutionalization and nationalization times in Turkey. In Güz Sancısı / Pains of Autumn (2009), she formed a part of the identity carnival of 6-7 September 1955 Events/Pogrom. In these two films, Tomris Giritlioğlu offers a series of interesting contexts to examine the Turkish government’s national stance and the identity formation in two decades from the 1943 Wealth Tax and to the 6-7 September 1955 Events/Pogrom.
