The overriding aim of my KU project at Konstfack, University College of Arts, Crafts and Design, is to make an interpretation of the same film in two different mediums – text and video. With two different readings of Vita Myror (“White Ants”) made by Bo Bjelfvenstam for Swedish Television in 1969 I want to reflect on different ways to interpret and reinterpret film. The video, in collaboration with Markus Öhrn, re-actualize the film, but not by making a new separate film, but by making an interference in the original film with new material. The text takes its departure in a close reading of Vita Myror comparing the film with two contemporary television documentaries that deal with the same subject – a new awareness of the role of Sweden in a colonial heritage. Both the video and the text provoke a critical discussion around the representation of “The Other” in the ethnographic tradition of documentary film.
