The Aliens play Mölkky in Helsinki

Kick off your Mölkky World Championship weekend with a dose of inspiration and Mölkky culture.
On Thursday, August 13th, the eve of the main event, there is a special screening of not one, but two international Mölkky documentaries at KinoK13 in Katajanokka, Helsinki. Whether you’re an “Alien of the Park” or an underdog aiming for the top, these films will get you in the right headspace for the tournament.
The Aliens of the Park
Synopsis: 12 skittles bring together two guys on an experimental journey to unfold the story of a weird Finnish game. For some an addiction, for others an anthropological field—this outdoor game encompasses everything from skills, music, craft, design, and travels. It invades the minds and habits of those we call: “The Aliens of the Park.”
Directed by: Olivier Allain & Max Leimstättner
Duration: 52 min
Languages: English, Finnish, French, German, Turkish
Subtitles: English, French, Japanese
Finskaroos: First to Fifty
After meeting a Mölkky legend, a group of Australians set out as underdogs to compete at the World Championships as the first-ever Australian team. Under the guidance of their guru, brothers Bernie and Doug assemble a team aiming to take the wood-throwing world by storm, only to be pleasantly surprised by the quirky global community they discover along the way.
Directed by: Sean Conlon & Tobey Tarasov
Duration: 1 h 23 min
