“Hanasaari A” is an experimental documentary about Helsinki’s changing cityscape and the final moments of a coal-fired power plant. The old industrial milieu is being destroyed to make space for modern housing units. The film is a combination of animation, live action cinematography and graphic elements. It is based on 500,000 photographs taken during the final two years of power plant’s existence.
