Anssi Kasitonni’s Sakke in the international competition of Tabor Film Festival

Anssi Kasitonni’s Sakke (2019) was selected for the international competition of Tabor Film Festival, held from July 11–14 in the Veliki Tabor Castle, Croatia. Sakke is included in the international competition programme 1 “Sounds & Visions“, screened on Thursday, July 11, at 21:00.

Anssi Kasitonni’s latest short film Sakke introduces his new innovation, the first rc-snowboarder in the world. Sakke is going to make a film about himself with his friend.

Anssi Kasitonni is a skateboarder and an award-winning artist from Sahalahti, Finland. He has worked in music, drawing and sculpture, but to many of his fans, the most beloved of his works are the short films he makes at his own farm. The films deal with age-old questions related to morality, love, death, generation gaps, sexuality and, of course, submarines. The ideas are epic, the films decidedly homespun. His movies create their own world that tells us something essential about ours. Kasitonni won the esteemed Ars Fennica Award in 2011.
