Fourth Wall

Directed by Laura Rantanen

Have you ever wondered what the men standing guard in front of prestigious buildings think? Laura Rantanen’s short documentary follows three honorary guard members in Helsinki, as their minds wander while staring at a grey construction fence. The 2018 production for Uneton48 Docs paints the mindscapes for each of the three guards in turn. Their focused expressions hide dreams and views of the sea behind them.
