In her intro for the New Jersey International Film Festival, director and scriptwriter Camilla Roos describes her new documentary Child No. 182, Barn nr 182 in Finnish and confirms that it is based on her own childhood. Child No. 182 follows Roos from her birth to her 8th year of life, as she was circulated through the foster and orphanage system in the 60s and 70s of Finland. The task of visualizing this past personal experience, and its wider implications for child protection, centers in archival print, photography & footage, and 8mm film shot by Roos’ team. The archival material includes municipal documents, letters and reports from social workers, as well as photos of Roos and guardians.

The Makin Waves Song of the Week is "A Light To Come Home To" by Jersey roots rocker Lisa Bouchelle featuring Americana legends Amanda Shires and Larry Campbell.
Loss, we've all suffered it. Some of us more than others,some less and still yet there are those of us who've not had loss of any significance to this point. Loss, like anything else, is directly related to perspective. What may seem like a huge loss to one, is insignificant to another. People pass away, bad days do the same, they fade into the night or disappear at the bottom of one's favorite drink until they are swept away by the morning's sunrise and things are new. Some loss stays a bit longer, adding scars to our bodies until they become topographical maps of memories; reminders of what not to do or what we didn't do or should've done.
The Makin Waves Song of the Week is "Body Cast," the latest video from the North Jersey dynamic duo Tiny Cities.
