Hansu Solo

In 2006, Hansu Siirala suffered two major strokes that left one half of her body immobile. She now lives in an assisted living home in Vancouver, Canada. Combining a phone conversation with abstract and animated visuals, Hansu Solo is an intimate portrait about how she spends her days and thinks about the passing of time.

This is a short film co-directed with Kaija Siirala. In 2015, it received a National Board of Review Award.
