On the Fair

This short film/music video criticizises capitalism and commercialized world, where you can sell even the old granny as well. It doesn´t seek to draw laughter, but there is still parody. The project started from poem, which was the things Ninel Grönholm and Tomi Christiansson were discussing: the daily issues from television and newspapers. The music was written around that and the filming happed the same day by one take. Music track is from main film track, no added sounds or effects. The song is Composed by Tomi Christiansson and is performed by Matilda Mother band.
Some themes Tomi Christiansson played beforehand and wrote the lyrics. The idea for film is based on this song and music; the final editing accomodates music.

Step right up, step right up, come and bow the shrine.
What once was yours, now is mine.
Slip to the comfort of cradle of commercialicity.
Don´t pass this awesome opportunity
Hand out the card I´ll send you a bill
In exchange to the latest thrill
when you see my tail-lights face
you appreciate the investment made
in synch with the fading glit
you´ll utter something explicit
on the wonder oh the awe
welcome to the thrill parade
after entering the wonderous mall
you never want to leave at all
I´ll travel all though the nation
and stop in every station
in case you need explanation
I´ll correct your pronounciation
Making so much racket&turning my jacket
I´ve already gone through,
after you notice what hit you
the lid you know ain´t valid
come taste my special brew
the secret to eternal youth
this extra special ointment
will be no dissapointment
Hey grandma in the crowd won´t you
give it a tray
you can throw down your cane
and go dancing away
kiss all your aches good bye
everytime the medicine show rolls around
live-eaters, jugglers&infinitely sad clow
enjoy the exitement and the joy it brings
it aint over till the fat lady sings
