Holmkvist has created a new video work in two parts for this exhibition. In Translation (2011) examines the interpreter's role in politics and in the asylum seeker situation. Other films in the exhibition are: Cold-Blooded Company (2010), In Character, Role Control (2008) and Interview with Saskia Holmkvist (2005).
