Files for all and each

We passed censorship
Since we still have such a strange thing as a governmental film censorship in Sweden, all films must pass it before screening to the public. The Weapon has been approved by Statens Biografbyrå, and is considered suitable for children of all ages.

Congratulations Södertälje!
The Weapon was broadcast five times a day this week, on local television station Södertälje LokalTV. Why so often? No idea really, but we are of course very thankful.

On clay and body boundaries in FLM
FLM writes about clay animation, Judith Butler and the boundaries between object and subject; and about us. Although the article mistakenly assumes The Weapon to be made in clay, its description of the threat of dissolving body parts is far too familiar to us after countless hours of melting vaseline fixatives and lost eyelids.
