Recipe for fascism: Half a generation unemployed, doctors forced to choose whom to treat, social security disappearing, the public on discount. We ask our friends in Greece to make a list of their images of the euro crisis. It becomes
a warning list for the North.

//Detained//99 min//
Directors: Anna Persson, Shaon Chakraborty
Producer: Anna Weitz/RåFILM, 2015
Detained is an absorbing observation from within a Swedish immigration detention centre for rejected asylum seekers. The film follows detainees and staff over the course of a summer. A mother separated from her children faces deportation, a young man waits for his life to begin, and staff members struggle with the impersonal bureaucracy required of their job.
