UPDATE: 88% funded! We're so close!! Join us in restoring a piece of pro-Pagan, feminist film history: the lost Icelandic 35mm film Sóley, written and directed by the legendary fine artist Róska.

Support the restoration here: http://bit.ly/2UyYlSx

Róska (1940-1996) was a radical figure in Iceland who forged her own path through the male-dominated art scene of the 60's and was one of the founding members of Nýlistasafnið. She studied art and film in Iceland, Prague, and Rome in the late 60’s, where she met her second husband, Manrico Pavolettoni. Although Róska and Manrico directed a few shorts and documentaries, this is one of the few feature length films directed by a woman at the time.

He showed his short documentary he directed titled Ketil about the late eccentric local figure. The highlight of the evening was when he taught our students how to turn into a panther.
