Oxblood, talk and film showing by Norwegian filmmaker Jeanne Bøe.

Oxblood: A family has toiled, lived, cried, watched the sun rise and rain trickle over fields and meadows for generations. It is a story of vulnerability and tradition. About people and livestock and about surviving side by side with what puts food on the table. The story takes place over a few short summer weeks when the adult daughter Ingrid comes home to the farm, where her father Oscar is struggling to keep the farm going as he gets older.

Jeanne Bøe will present the film, and reflect on sustainability, cultural heritage, communications, relationships and love of the land and what it means to us all.

After the film, the audience will have the opportunity to ask questions about the film's topics, but also about the process of making a film.
