ARTIST´S HEAD

a documentary film about performance artist and painter Pekka Kainulainen.  He dives into finnish mythology and creates his performance characters using shamanistic energy. His characters are in contradiction with our techno-society. He speaks openly also about his life as a poor artist trying to become a good family father.
