Poster for Paper Worlds of Latif Kazbekov

2019 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Film-portrait of the artist Latif Kazbekov. Meetings in the workshop, where the boundaries between the external world, accessible to the viewer, and the internal are blurred, where the painting as the result is just a pretext for the process. Paper reliefs, thoughtful painting, authentic paper casting and endless questions. An attempt to look at the nature of creativity and understand – how are the paper worlds born?

Poster for He and I

2019 · ★ 0.0 (0)

"He and I" narrates the reflections of a woman in her role as wife and mother lived between imposition and choice. Through the editing of the shootings of a single filmmaker who portrays his wife and life, the woman narrates herself being in opposition to her husband’s world, a militant always far from home. A reworking of female status as a political act to tell that love is an act of acceptance of differences and that personal memories are part of the collective history.

Poster for Not My Story

2018 · ★ 0.0 (0)

Five of the six heroes of the film came to Kazan from different parts of the earth to go beyond their fear and for the first time openly declare their HIV status by running a marathon in a special uniform. For Deanna, who flew in from Australia with her 70-year-old mother, talking about her diagnosis is a daily job throughout her life. She is an example for the American Sean, who prepared for the "coming out" long and carefully. Seam is sure that his parents in an Indonesian village will hardly ever know about his participation in the Open Faces team in distant Kazan. Zhandos, a young doctor from Kazakhstan, only worries about how the news will affect his mother.

Poster for Induced Blindness

2020 · ★ 0.0 (0)

"Ceguera Inducida" (Induced Blindness) is a retrospective upon childhood and a collective memory which seems to be endangered by the growth of extreme right-wing parties in South America. Yesterday, far away from home, the distance seemed to shape and re-signify my infancy and the memories arising from the Uruguayan worst economic crisis at the beginning of this century. Today, these words seem to prevail and the melancholy continues to invade. The second voice of the film belongs to Jorge Luis Batlle, ex-president of the Republic (2000-2005) during a visit to the United States.

No folkore, no rituals, no klezmer, no political statements, no twee Berlin Jewish quarters. This film is an attempt to make an imageless film; a plea for a religion of imagelessness, of words, of thoughts.
