{THEMATIC PANORAMA}

The ninth version of the festival continues its curatorial tradition, drawing tours at the level of recognizable artistic praxis and new conceptual bets in works around the world. On this occasion, the eight thematic programs are configured by abstract universes, figuratives and with various audiovisual materialities, while other programs, gather expressions closer to the sensitive and in turn loaded with a critical value in terms of social, political and cultural discourse in an intimate and collective key.

BODY COSMOGONY

 

Body cosmogony exposes a plural and disruptive dialogue through 8 short films of 5 nationalities that investigate the body as work, weaving unique spaces, times and territories. A political manifesto that together and from each of the selected pieces, modifies the status of corporeal being that inhabits a society, to make the body an ecosystem by itself.

VISUAL RESONANCES AND SYNESTHETIC TRANSLATIONS

This panorama is composed of 10 abstract, hypnotic and immersive works, at the sound and / or visual level, that propose unusual listening modes and imaginative and perceptual overflow by the viewer. The auditory is located in a primary place and maintains a dialectical, symbolic and disruptive reciprocity with the retinal, from where synesthetics and the capacity for experiential enjoyment arise.

BEING EVERYTHING: IMAGE AND TIME

 

This journey begins in a minimal abstraction to intuit cosmic origins. We pass through a platonic cave that allows to rewrite mythologies. It continues with the contained and latent humanity in the fluctuating image of a growing baby. We enter a tunnel with windows that shows spectral details, woven by women who dialogue with their light; Then we take refuge in a patio to throw messages on petals; We circulate to the past direct to our universal familiar heart thanks to an individual ritual of light; Then we glimpse healing of absences and anxieties with poetry, and we landed in intuitions with confusing but comforting silhouettes.

ARTIFICE RESISTANCE

8 short films of Colombia, Argentina, Chile, Iran, France and the United States, which critically reflect on the world, their yokes and as possible in the midst of the improbable. The conceptual axes go from the ancient but current chains of submission, to the statements of resistance from collective action and the questioning of representation mandates.

ARCHIVE-GRIEF

The archive as the audiovisual, is reminding us of death, not only as a physical act, but as a transformation, one where the body, the substrate or the form, rots to create something different: another narrative. Life, memory, trip and experience of today are also contemplated, with the vestige lived. This is a selection of short films where file, duel and time are discussed in individual and collective key.

FUTURONOW

In this sample you will find novel and exciting proposals of people who for first time venture into the experimental genre. Some very young, others not so much.
