Livet på gruvkanten

Finlands största dagbrott finns i Pargas, ett 130 meter djupt hål, två kilometer långt. Kalkgruvan är som ett dunkande hjärta mitt i stan, som väsnas, skakar och sakta slukar både hus och vägar. Av det gamla brukssamhället finns inte mycket kvar. Dokumentären samlar minnen av de sista barnen som växte upp i Pargas Kalks arbetarbostäder, idag ödehus som väntar på att rivas.

Details

Livet på gruvkanten (2023) delves into Finland's largest open-pit mine located in Pargas, a 130-meter-deep hole stretching two kilometers long. This kalkgruvan serves as a metaphorical beating heart in the midst of the town, causing noise, tremors, and slowly engulfing both homes and roads. The once-thriving industrial community now stands as a mere shadow of its former self. The documentary captures the memories of the last children who grew up in the worker housing of Pargas Kalk, now abandoned houses awaiting demolition.

As viewers explore the remnants of a bygone era, they witness the impact of industrialization on personal lives and collective memories. Livet på gruvkanten (2023) offers a poignant reflection on the cost of progress and the resilience of communities faced with the inevitable changes brought by economic development. Experience the essence of a disappearing way of life through the poignant storytelling and archival footage featured in this documentary.
