Erkki Collin is a hunted man. The Czar’s soldiers have been close on the heels of the leader of the rebellious Finns, who have been fighting the Russian occupiers since the end of the 18th Century. His flight leads him to the chambers of the dancer Marina Feodorowna, in whose house a party is taking place at that very moment. Marina discovers the intruder, hides him from his pursuers and soon falls in love with him. But hiding Erkki forever is not an option; so she presents him as her music teacher. The swindle fails and Prince Governor Abarow, who’s long had a thing for Marina, discovers the real identity of the man, but doesn’t have him arrested.

GUTS: A Female Expedition Through Africa
Surf Film Nacht
Patrizia and Marie left everything behind and embarked on a five-month, 20,000 km off-road journey from France to Guinea-Bissau—with nothing but an old car, four surfboards, and a mission: to capture the stories of inspiring women redefining their place in society across Northwest Africa. What happened on that long and dusty road was pure magic. From the first female mountain guide of Morocco to the women’s rights activist in Nouakchott, or the young surf collective in Dakar, they all showed that when women dare to break free from conventions and listen to their own voice, a revolution begins—not just for them, but for their communities, their countries, and the world.
