Luisa Omielan: Am I Right Ladies?(2018)

Incendiárias, Filhas do Fogo(en)

Directed and written by Aurora Jamelo and Sophia William, “Incendiárias” compiles scenes of trans women and transvestites performing in public spaces in Pernambuco. The images sometimes tune in to these women's dreams and desires, their roots and truths; sometimes they denounce fears, frustrations and aggressions experienced daily - a provocation and, at the same time, a manifesto for the existence of this population.

The Take(en)

In suburban Buenos Aires, thirty unemployed ceramics workers walk into their idle factory, roll out sleeping mats and refuse to leave. All they want is to re-start the silent machines. But this simple act - the take - has the power to turn the globalization debate on its head. Armed only with slingshots and an abiding faith in shop-floor democracy, the workers face off against the bosses, bankers and a whole system that sees their beloved factories as nothing more than scrap metal for sale.

The words of Ventotene(it)

The Name of This Film Is Dogme95(en)

The Name of this Film is Dogme95 is an irreverent documentary exploring the origins of Dogme95, the most influential movement in world cinema for a generation. The film tells how a 'brotherhood' of four Danish directors armed with a radical Manifesto, has inspired, outraged and provoked filmmakers and filmgoers the world over. The rules of Dogme95 take filmmaking back to its brass-tacks - stories must be set in the here and now; the films must be shot on location, with a handheld camera, using natural light, and direct sound; the rules forbid murders and weapons (staples of the much-loved action-movie genre); and, most amusingly, the director must not be credited (that holds also for the director of The Name of this Film is Dogme95...).

Bruja(de)

A story of diaspora. The film criticises the myth of Swiss neutrality, which violently masks structural, systemic, and social passivity.

Manifesto(de)

A striking humorous audio-visual experience.
