What are the things we secretly long for?
If we dared to ask for what we truly want, what would we wish for?

Best Wishes / Anden I Flaskan is a film about longing, the things that chafe and the feelings we rarely dare to express. Through a series of short clips, we are offered glimpses into the innermost dreams of different individuals. Their yearning for connection, closeness, and the desire to withdraw from the outside pressures of social codes and expectations.

In this project, I explore how we engage with imagery on a large scale, using the format of the installation to place the viewer at the center of the narrative. I construct three walls onto which the film is projected. Together, these walls form a room that, combined with the animation, creates a scenographic environment the visitor is invited to step into.
