THE OTHER VOICE is back! 💥
And it`s more topical as ever!
The tragicomic film examines the decline of education in Finland between 2007 and 2019. As one government after another gavels science and education to the ground, members of academic community fight for the things that make democracy possible.
We will be talking about films` possibilities on strengthening democracy next week. You`re all most welcome to discuss the subject with us! 👏
Thank you @docpoint @docpointimpact ! 🙏💋✌️
Making the world better and films` life longer is equally important. Tarasow Films` crew couldn`t be happier.

Heading home. Sometimes documentary film is a hard sport which gets deeply into guts. Feeling grateful for the lovely and brave people who opened themselves and their lives to the filmmakers from Finland ❤️ So lucky to have with me this perticular cinematographer @anssialeino, who you can trust professionally and personally in tough situations. And #theproducer @spacehunterdog who has magnificent ability to resolve all and every kind of problem remotely. Friends in the country of yellow flowers. We`ll be back.🌻
