FALLET

Agnes og Ragnar skal klatre et fjell i Nord-Norge. Underveis på klatreturen kommer mørke hemmeligheter fram. Den essensielle tilliten som trengs både i et forhold og i klatreveggen settes på prøve, hundrevis av meter over bakken.

Agnes and Ragnar have set out to climb a mountain in northern Norway. During the expedition dark secrets are revealed. The essential trust needed both in a relationship and the climbing is put to the test, hundreds of feet above the ground.

Seminar: Succeeding as a Filmmaker

At this seminar you will meet five people who in different ways have realized the dream of working professionally with film. They will talk about the strategies they have followed, the challenges they have faced and the choices they have made​​. What factors have been crucial to make their dreams come true? Where are they now and what strategies do they have for the future? Four of the five have chosen to establish themselves in the region of Mid-Norway. What opportunities exist regionally and why have they chosen to invest their future here? The seminar is a collaboration between Minimalen and Midtnorsk filmsenter, and constitute the first part of the regional program at this year's Minimalen.
