New documentary film
Farmors leriga händer
Farmors leriga händer
In a personal documentary, granddaughter and director Emilia Ekman Larson explores her grandmother’s art and life. Previously unseen works raise questions about the unspoken aspects of Lisa’s creative process – grief and the silent language of her ceramics. The film becomes a story of legacy, creativity, and the need for self-expression. It is in Swedish and runs for 90 minutes.
