What happens

Blasikanda er en eksperimentalfilm fra 1984 instrueret af Line Storm. Filmen er en blanding af nøje planlægning og spontane optagelser. Navnet er en lyd, en rytme og det er filmens ide at være som livets strøm i evigt kredsløb og bevægelse. Den er et stykke poesi og et forsøg på, billedligt, at vise ind i det ubevidste som et vigtigt led i bevidstgørelsen af balancen mellem liv og død. Kampen for at beskytte det livgivende mod destruktion. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
