Stupid Sweetheart
Nousiainen Anna-Mari
”You are the only people who will be there for each other through your whole life,” said my mother at the end of the 90's. All is linked to the ordinary life, everyday torture and tenderness of the nursery. Here we are, these are our unique memories, yet the experience is universal. We lived side by side through the stormiest times of our childhood and teenage years. What do we put up with in the name of sisterhood? Stupid sweetheart is a film that has been crafted into existence through performance, real life and memories mixing to fantasy. Everything is true, but nothing is real.

Anna-Mari Nousiainen is a failed filmmaker, mediocre artist, sad boss, and a feeler of feelings. Nousiainen is a post-teen located in Oulu Finland. Her works derive from body horror, digital chaos, sexuality, thirst, dreams, social media, and the longing for freedom. At the core of her works are an endless orgy of emotions, the study of embarrassment and the periphery of memories.
