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! 👏
