The Göteborg Film Festival will be sending one person to an "Isolated Cinema" on a remote Swedish lighthouse island for seven days this month -- but there’s a catch. That person will be totally isolated, without even their phone. What they will have is 60 films to watch during their week on the island.
The Film Festival is looking for someone willing to take on the challenge of spending one week in social isolation on the remote lighthouse island of Pater Noster, a secluded spot out at sea, far away from family, friends and mobile phone, the festival website says. "The only company will be the noise of the sea – and the festival films." According to the website, anyone can apply to attend "Isolated Cinema," but only one person will be chosen.
During the week that he or she is on Pater Noster, the person will have to "provide a [daily] report about the films and the experience of being alone on an isolated rock in a vast sea," the website says. The festival is also offering isolated film screenings at the Scandinavium arena and the Draken Cinema. Though multiple films will be shown at each location, only one person will be able to attend each screening. According to the website, the festival will choose the person for "Isolated Cinema" by January 19th. That person will spend a week on the island beginning January 30th.
