- DirectorMengqi ZhangIn the winter marking 10 years since the director began filming her "47 KM" series, she tries to get a new building constructed in the village. The girls, who had thus far been the subjects of her films, take up the camera themselves, and begin recording scenes of the village.
- DirectorJosé OliveiraMarta RamosMariana ParasenseStarsAna AlexandreLuís BarbosaFernando CastroThe recollections of a Portuguese teacher in the present will make us follow his father, Manuel, former fighter in our colonial war and constantly tormented with those memories. He'll walk us through the depths of the physical sites that haunt him - from training barracks to the lakes and gardens of his youth and infatuation - and also to his memory's gulf - war and passion combined, entangled, in a battle that questions or howls immemorial existential doubts.
- DirectorManuela Serra"Its uniqueness defines also a model - of cinema, of auteur, of a country, of a time - if that model could be established under the form of vagueness and of incompleteness."
- DirectorAhmed El MaanouniStarsBen BrahimAbdelwahad dreams of a life of wealth and wants breaks with tradition. His mother Hlima, a woman with extraordinary energy, is afraid that he will leave the village. After the death of his father he is the head of the family. Neither the family council nor the countless obstacles that stand in his way can prevent the young farmer from pursuing his plans for the future. Alyam, Alyam is a film about shattered dreams and the circumstances leading up to that point; about the shaking of the traditional social structure; about the strength born of desperation and the unrelenting dissipation of lost generations.
- DirectorAndré AntoineStarsMaguy DeliacPierre AlcoverLouis RavetA bargeman, his wife and sister-in-law navigate the canals of northern Belgium in their two vessels, the eponymous "L'Hirondelle et la Mésange," taking the time to appreciate the sites and landscapes they encounter along their way. Like many in his trade, the mariner supplements his income by transporting occasional contraband. The tranquil rhythms of their nautical lives are interrupted, however, when they hire an ambitious new pilot.
- DirectorLaure PortierStarsArnaud GomezJacqueline PuygrenierLaure PortierArnaud is my little brother. One day I realized that he had grown up. He was born where people have no choices and he is trying to be what he should have been. Free.
- DirectorPawel LozinskiComposed from the conversations that the director holds with people passing by in the street under his Warsaw apartment, each story in 'The Balcony Movie' is unique and deals with the way we try to cope with life as individuals. All together, they create a self-portrait of contemporary human life, and the passers-by present a composite picture of today's world.
- DirectorArantza SantestebanThe experience of being incarcerated.
- DirectorDeclan ClarkeStarsDeclan ClarkePaddy ClarkeThe beginning of the film is strikingly austere: it looks like an educative documentary based on still frames, diagrams and photographs, with a didactic voice-over, about the invention of electricity and early long-distance communication. But that grim start is a ploy, and is actually a launching pad to many other dimensions. You may remember the singular and so beautiful We are not like them (FID 2013) and Wreckage in May (FID 2016), the last two chapters of what Declan Clarke called his "Geist Trilogy". These almost mute films noirs investigated, respectively, modern history and modernist urban-planning utopias, and the Paris Commune upheaval. Once again, "progress" and the unruly herd of its ghosts are summoned in this film. Except there is a major difference this time: Declan Clarke shares a part of his autobiography, more specifically his father's passion, in a film playfully structured in four chapters and one interlude. He recounts his early childhood, the holiday trips following the fatherly pilgrimages, up until the closing down of the museum founded by his father (the Irish Museum of Broadcasting), and the story of the man's mental breakdown. That is indeed an unusual journey to talk about science. The journey also includes, in a deeply touching interweaving, first a reflection on the exponential growth of Alzheimer's in our society, and second, a meditation on the history of famous Cassini orbiter. Such is the unique and bold challenge of the film: connecting the stubbornness of one individual with cosmic vastness, the only thing that could ever match it. Therefore, a serious tone was actually required to deal with elegy, and with the director's will to make this film an ode to human making of brand-new tools, to transmission of knowledge as a passion, to the upholding of the utopias of dialogue, to refusing to forget, to his own father and to the whole universe.
- DirectorPascale BodetI give a friend a tale to read. He leaves his house, walks across the countryside, repeats the tale to himself, and arrives at the sea. And so it was that a stonecutter, who became rich, then king, then sun, then cloud, then rock, became a stonecutter once again.
- DirectorRosine Mfetgo MbakamStarsDelphineRosine Mfetgo MbakamThis film is the portrait of Delphine, a young Cameroonian girl. Like others, she belongs to the generation of young African women crushed by our patriarchal societies and abandoned to Western sexual colonization as her only means of survival. Through her courage and strength, she exposes these patterns of domination that continue to lock up African women.
