This is my Father Project.
Doctor Lenkkeri was a well known public figure in the small town where I grew up. He was visited in order to get a cure for a broad variety of ailments, or plainly to hear some of his dry, often macabre, humor. Once his large filing cabinet was filled to the prim a record of the medical state of the small town was completed. But as the work was done the doctor died and the access to his files got prohibited to everyone. His lifework is a bulk of condensed medical information and a monument of decades of meticulous work, and at the same time it hardly exists at all. It is a mount of paper resembling toxic waste.

Apart from the public figure he was a father and a man of many passions: poetry as well as physical labor in form of various, often endless, impossible or insane projects. All in all he was a man of contradictions.

More than being a document Medical Records of a Small Town continues Ville Lenkkeri’s studies in the nature and appearance of the truth.
