BIFF 2025: Vi er i Bergen, og i denne første festivalepisoden fra årets utgave av BIFF rapporterer vi om et knippe filmer vi har sett, blant dem Mary Bronsteins If I Had Legs I'd Kick You og László Nemes' Orphan («Árva»).  Montages deltar denne uken på Bergen internasjonale filmfestival (BIFF), og sammen med vestlandshovedstadens engasjerte publikum og andre tilreisende gjester, har vi beveget oss inn ut av kinomørket de siste dagene og forsynt oss fra det rikholdige programmet festivalen har servert. I samtalen nedenfor deler vi våre tanker om filmene vi har sett i første halvdel av årets BIFF (som pågår helt til 23. oktober). Vi snakker om det angstfylte dramaet If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, der Rose Byrne spiller en terapeut på randen, Orphan, en dramatisk oppvekstskildring fra etterkrigstidens Ungarn, og Rebuilding, et moderne westerndrama om tap og forsoning med Josh O'Connor i hovedrollen. Vi har også sett to dokumentarer som gjorde inntrykk – Laura Poitras‘ og Mark Obenhaus‘ Cover-Up, en politisk ladet film om den 88-årige gravejournalisten Seymour Hersh, og Rachel Grady og Heidi Ewings Folktales, en eventyrlig og tankevekkende skildring av livet på Pasvik folkehøgskole i Finnmark.

¡Vótame en los Premios iVoox 2025! VÓTANOS EN LOS PREMIOS IVOOX https://go.ivoox.com/wv/premios25?c=3817 Tras su independencia en 1917, una ola de nacionalismo barrió Finlandia, dando forma al ideal de la 'Gran Finlandia', reclamando zonas de Noruega, Rusia o Estonia. Este sueño irredentista anhelaba unir bajo una misma nación a todos los pueblos fínicos, expandiéndose hacia los territorios de Carelia Oriental e Ingria en rusia, el Finnmark noruego, el Valle del Torne sueco o la totalidad de Estonia. Entre 1918 y 1922, miles de voluntarios finlandeses participaron en las llamadas 'Guerras de Kinship' o Heimosodat, cruzando la frontera para apoyar revueltas locales. La más significativa fue la fallida incursión en Carelia Oriental (1921-22), contra el naciente poder soviético, un episodio olvidado que, aunque no fue una guerra oficial, selló el destino fronterizo y dejó una profunda huella en las relaciones con la URSS. Te lo cuenta Esaú Rodríguez con dramatizaciones de Dani CarAn. Casus Belli Podcast pertenece a 🏭 Factoría Casus Belli.

If you're unaware of them and the fantastic work they do, here's how Danyl found himself in this unique and fast-growing industry: In mid-2020, Dan converted a chest freezer into an ice bath.

More chilled, less stressed, and full of energy. So he got to thinking. How can I help other people feel like this? And is there a better way than selling flipped freezers? Brass Monkey was the answer to both questions.We set ourselves a challenge. To create the finest ice baths in the world. And, with absolutely no false modesty, we succeeded. Our ice baths are the only truly smart ice baths in the world.

For å finne ut om det fungerer med elbil har Håkon satt snuten mot Finnmark i en Porsche Taycan 4 facelift. Hvor enkelt er det å lade? Hvor velfungerende er Porsches sportslige elbil? Det blir spørsmål fra lyttere og selvfølgelig fra David som av en eller annen grunn ikke sitter i studio på Smestad, men er på et hotellrom i Tyskland. Hosted on Acast.

A Sauna Talk from the British Sauna Summit, Tuesday, 20 May 2025 Hilton London Canary Wharf. Last year, Sauna Summit 2024 and 1.0, about 120 of us gathered rooftop at in Hackney. The spirit was both well organized like a conference, and yet intimate like a family gathering. This year, as attendance swelled to well north of 300, the Hilton Hotel ballroom provided a backdrop and familiarity of a “proper” (to use the British word) organized meeting. This is the evolution of sauna. What started as a somewhat jest and jovial organisation, like the growth of many things sauna, the British Sauna Society has ballooned into a structured membership of several hundred, representing the “saunapreneurs” of public saunas that dot the map of the UK's shoreline, streams, and urban communities. Yours truly was given the honour of announcing the winners of the second annual Sauna Summit Awards, which showcases outstanding saunas (Best Urban, Best Community, Best New, etc.). All of the contest participants are winners. And though there's surely pride and competition behind the curtain, yet what is displayed in the UK sauna scene is more collaboration and support. The Brits seem to recognize that the rising sauna tide lifts all public sauna boats. London Calling I am reminded of my time living in London. It was decades ago, and I had the dream job of music listings editor at Time Out magazine, where i'd have one on one relationship with the music venues (Dingwalls, Brixton Academy, etc.) and what stood out was the pricing structure of concert tickets. General admission at the top, then the list of discounted tickets (senior, student, unemployed, single parent, counsel estate resident, library card holder, etc.). It's ingrained in British culture to proudly support those underserved. And sauna culture today shares that “community support” ethos. America may face headwinds in this regard, being more capitalistic centric, yet Britain waves the flag of “serving their community” as evidence by the hundreds of saunas dotting their shoreline and beyond. Anyhow, in this episode we get to hear one on one conversations with folks from Harvia, Jake Newport from Finnmark, kindred spirit author Lassi Liikkanen, key Summit organizer Mark Lamb, his wife and author Emma O'kelly, Sauna from Finland Carita, Rob De Bank, and other folks “behind the scenes” and “between the action.” Notes from presentations at the British Sauna Summit: Carita 1. Take as long as you like in sauna. Listen to your body. 2. Nudity is common in private saunas. Often ladies and men's sides. 3. Most Finn's prefer 70-80c and we make löyly. 4. Sauna is a safe and relaxing activity for all ages. Sauna at the lake helps make family memories. 5. Everyone sweats differently. More sweat doesn't mean better 6. Sauna stones wear out. Replace them regularly. She changes stones twice a year. 6. Clean the sauna – deep clean under the benches. Dry the sauna after every use. 8. Whisking is gentle and relaxing. Good for your skin and circulation. Every sauna has its own soul. Löyly is the main thing. Dr emelia Vuitisalmi “Sauna is the one single place where we truly feel safe and we can relax.” Finns don't count minutes or measure temperature. Sauna stimulates three hormones 1. Dopamine. Direction Motivation and reward.  Walk your true path. Sauna is the place to answer these questions 2. Serotonin. Safety Sauna is the place where we feel safe. 3. Oxytocin. Connection. Sauna is an amazing place to connect with ourself. What is behind our own thoughts. Deep healing power of sauna takes us to a state of love. Sweat. Let go. Belong. The deep power of sauna. — Rob Da Bank Slo Mo Drew parallels of organizing festivals to the sauna space in UK. Dom Bridges Running his sauna for 12 years on the beach in Margate. Free. Significant part of the town. More like a skatepark, its own ecosystem. No one owns it, a spirit of togetherness. Sara Higgins Seaside Sauna Haus Dorset. “It's about connection with yourself, and it's also about connection with who you share the bench with. “ “Focus on your thing and shout about others. “ Wild Scottish Sauna Jayne McGie & Jamie Craig-Gentles Met each other in the water.

Staffing is also part of the community. 18 sauna hosts. Work for one day a week. Extra money for them as a second job. Zack Avery &Soul Community. The heart of the project is to give people a space to belong. Share spaces together. West London  Dundbar theory. Societies thrive in communities of about 100-150 people. Egalitarian space. Not wearing their title. Shared humanity in sauna.  Heart of the community space. The sauna is the center of the community space. Need for nurturing spaces. A thirst for better ways of being in the city. Dr Martha : an expert in ritual and belonging. Move our way from the normal to the secret. Physically taken away from the normal… liminality. Neither here nor there. Sauna creates an intense lininal space. Research with extreme groups. Extreme experience bond us together. Expert in ritual and belonging. —- The holy trinity : fire, ice, and löyly Lasse spoke about the three methods of heat transfer plus condensation (moisture forming on the body). If you follow the “Instagram sauna” and replicate it, you may run into problems that you cannot even power up the heater.” Daryl Bosomworth Brass Monkey Spoke about ice. And the cold. The important factors of why and how to bring cold as a best practice for saunas. Cold : “you are micro dosing with a potent stressor. “ Alex Lembke, Finnish Sauna Master of the year. Aufguss means pouring hot water on a tea bag. Technical aspects of löyly. Self Nature – spirit protecting the human. Löyly – your life force. The functions of your body. Your life form.  Life force of every being. “If a sauna has no löyly , it doesn't live. It doesn't breathe. “ You should experience good löyly. Odorless. Long lasting. Pour löyly. Lasts a long time. “Everyone deserves good löyly. “ —- Nick Cassenbaum: Jewish schmeisting culture. Bubble Schmeises. Rosanna Cooney At one time, there's were 75 Turkish style baths in Ireland.

Trolldomsprosessene som herjet i Norge fra 1400 til 1700-tallet rammet både samer og nordmenn hardt i Finnmark. Men hvordan påvirket egentlig dette forholdene mellom myndighetene og samene? Anders Poulsen beskriver detaljert i sin rettsak hva slags “magi” runebomma kunne kaste, men kan vi egentlig stole på hva han sier? Og var det egentlig forskjell mellom hvit og svart magi? Førsteamanuensis emeritus i historie ved Universitetet i Tromsø, Rune Blix Hagen gir oss svarene. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Finnmark, 1691. Anders Poulsen må forsvare seg mot alvorlige trolldomsanklager. Myndighetene mener han er djevelens hjelper, og at hans samiske tromme er et ondt redskap. For å komme levende ut av dette, vet Anders at han må spille sine kort riktig. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As Europeans embarked on their colonial ventures in the Americas, they also forged new frontiers closer to their homelands. In Norway's far northern territory of Finnmark, settlers from the south moved into the ancestral home of the Indigenous Sámi people, and by the end of the seventeenth century, nearly five percent of the population had been tried for witchcraft. This episode tells the story of Norway's Vardø witch trials and their legacy.  Researched, written, and produced by Corinne Wieben with original music by Purple Planet.   Episode sources  Support the Show.EnchantedPodcast.netFacebook/enchantedpodcastInstagram/enchantedpodcastTumblr/enchantedpodcast

As we look back upon Sauna Days 2024, walking from one sauna to the next, pretty much all of us were comfortably numb. About 200 guest converged for the fourth Sauna Days event at Larsmont Cottages, North of Duluth, Minnesota, this past weekend. Some came from near, and many came from far. All were able to enjoy the multitude of saunas, speakers, nature, and locally crafted food, beverages, and live entertainment. The recipe for a comfortably numb sauna gathering is much like a basic chocolate chip cookie recipe. We don't need too many ingredients to make something scrumptious. The foundation for Sauna Days 2024 was 12 mobile saunas and one lämpömassa enriched brick and mortar sauna. Then, sprinkle in various food tents, strategically located hydration stations. Add a pinch of LMNT hydration packets (flavors of choice) and a curation of interesting speakers. Finally, as icing on the cake, infinity cold plunge access into the world's largest freshwater lake. Familiar faces A good number of the 200 plus Sauna Days 2024 attendees were repeat vendors and offenders. Familiar faces helped foster countless spontaneous re-connections either on the bench, by one of fire pits, at the bar, on the rocks, or in the lake. “So great to see you again!” And they meant it. “Is this your second or third Sauna Days?” The spontaneous gatherings were akin to traveling from stage to stage at an outdoor music festival. Then, bumping into familar faces from year's past. And, like attending a music festival with great bands and few yahoos, at Sauna Days, everyone knew the lyrics. Songs include: keep sandals outside the saunas, help fill up the löyly buckets, ask who is ready for steam before throwing water on the rocks, and by all means, close the sauna door. Far and wide As sauna becomes more popular, Sauna Days continues to draw people from places beyond the Great Lakes sauna belt region. I found myself on the bench with a couple who came all the way from the Yukon Territory. Other Canadians included Kyle Wilson, Homecraft Saunas, and his wife from Vancouver BC. We had guests from Salt Lake City, Oregon, Northern and Southern California, Florida. And yet none of these participants received the Furthest Traveled Award. That accolade was awarded to Jake Newport from Finnmark saunas. A close second went to Mika & Wendy from the British Sauna Society. The three represented the UK well, proucly wearing their signature British Blue robes as sauna uniforms. Speaker's corner The Brits added some great flavor to the Sauna Days speaker series. Jake Newport shared a slide of a map of Great Britain, showing 100 dots around the British coastline, representing the number of mobile sauna activations there. “Pretty much every beach around the coastline now has a public sauna.” We breathed along with Nick Fox, Learned about Sauna and Sobriety, gleaned insight into the future and scale of Therme Group's wellbeing oasis's (bigger than Yankee Stadium!) with President Robbie Hammond. The Steam Masters Many were quietly sharing that a highlight experience for Sauna Days 2024 was getting wacked around by one of the three Steam Masters. The three administered venik treatments in either the Steam Lodge or Deep Wave Sauna's Black Night sauna. We were blessed to have three steam masters lead rounds of venik treatments. Dan from The Banya House, California Alex, and B Alex from BSaunas in Buffalo, NY. In addition to Sauna Days being the first weekend of May, the Steam Masters introduced us to a sister event first weekend of October: Banya Fest at a stately church camp just outside Minneapolis/St. Paul.

Originally from Germany, she is fluent in three languages and lives in a remote part of Finnmark, Northern Norway.

She now lives in Tana, one of the most remote parts of Arctic Norway, with her Sami partner.
