Yesterday was the long awaited premiere of the Finnish documentary Reindeerspotting. The official nation wide premiere is today 9.4.2010, but yesterday we celebrated the film with guests, collages and friends at Bristol movie theatre. Reindeerspotting is a docymentary film of a group of young guys living in Rovaniemi, Arctic Circle, dabbling in petty crime and hard drugs and it is directed by Joonas Neuvonen.
The theatre was completely packed, I think there was like three seats empty when the movie started rolling. People seemed to be excited to see the film, but I could also see they were a bit nervous. The material can be quite shocking and depressing to say the least. Here are photos from the theatre.

After the movie ended, the evening continued with an after party at redrum where drinks we served and people could talk about the film. Unfortunately I don’t have any photos from there since it was so dark, but take my word for it – it was a night to remember! A special thank you to all our guests, I hope you enjoyed the movie!
