Den 28 december 1895 gjorde Bröderna Lumière, sin första filmvisning för allmän, betalande publik på Grand Cafe i Paris, vilket därför brukar anses som filmens födelsedag. Bröderna visade bl.a sin kortfilm L’Arrivée d’un train en gare de la Ciotat (Tåget ankommer Ciotats station) vilket sägs ha skapat full panik bland publiken.

Ur Bröderna Lumières film ”Tåget ankommer Ciotats station

On December 28, 1895, in front of a paying audience at the Grand Cafe in Paris, the brothers Lumièresstaged a twenty-minute program of ten films, including one ofa train as it entered a station, moving straight toward the camera. The filmcreated panic in the audience; several women are said to have fainted. The event has gone down in history as the first public cinema performance. Withinfive years of the invention of the cinÄmatographe–during which time the Lumières promoted it throughout Europe–motion pictures were being made in every developed country in the world. The Lumières continued toinnovate film technology. In Paris in 1900, they demonstrated their Photorama, which was a 360í panoramic projector. Thirty-five years later, they introduced their stereo-cine process, which was based on the principle of anaglyphics.

Three true stories – experienced, animated and told by the director, about not coming home safely as a young girl/woman. She is a survivor, she can handle it – but why does she has to? Jessica Laurén started her film career in 1993 and nowadays she runs the company Gold Spoon Pictures together with Jonas Dahlbeck and Boris Nawratil. They are director-designers, and in many cases also the labor as well. They have different specialities and therefore complement each other quite well. For extra work, and upscaled productions, they have a loyal crew of collegues and friends to call. Whilst they enjoy Stockholm, they have filmed and worked in many different countries, and loved it. Nothing is like new places and new people to give you new ideas. New ideas, after all, is what we are all about.
