Stories from Story Café I: Tomorrow, video, 2007

Tomorrow, 16 mm film transferred on video, Beta master, 4 min 48 s, 2007
Tomorrow is a short film where a little girl wonders about the meaning of tomorrow. The story is based on a childhood memory recorded within Lecklin's Story Café project. The events of the film unfold in a home in Finland in the 1970s. A little girl demands that her father explain what tomorrow means. Dissatisfied with the answers she gets, she decides to stay up until midnight and wait for tomorrow to come. Jeanne, a French visitor to the Story Café in Helsinki in autumn 2006, told the original story and it is the first Story Café story to be made into a short film.
